Paige's First Year

Paige Riley Silvestrini was born 08/09/09, 1 year ago today. It's hard to believe that a year has already passed! I thought by quitting my job and staying home with my children that time would somehow go slower but it seems to have had the opposite effect. I try to cherish every moment because they seem to be passing more and more quickly.

Paige is already so intelligent, fun, free spirited, joyful, silly, active, naughty, entertaining, loving, wild, curious, sweet, adorable, daring, brave, fearless and I could go on and on! She gives us so much joy every day and is such a happy little person. We can't wait to see what the Lord has in store for her precious little life.

Paige's 1 Year PIcs

I took the kids to JC Penny today for Paige's 1 year pictures. Paige was all over the place and I was thinking I wasn't going to get any good pictures. Reed cooperated for the first time but we were there for Paige! It's always a frustrating, stressful situation and I'm amazed that they can capture such great pictures in those brief moments of stillness!

My favorite!


Modeling




My other favorite!

She puts EVERYTHING in her mouth!
(Last week included a ladybug, charcoal, magic marker, dog food, paper towel with Windex, paintbrush, etc. etc.)

Trying to escape (as usual)

More posing

Reed wasn't supposed to have his pictures today. I wanted one with both of them together since I don't have a good one yet. I STILL don't have a good one but I caved and had her take some alone pictures since he was cooperating. LOVE THEM! Had to buy! SO these are his two and almost a half pictures!

Such a perfect little face

Being shy

Such a big boy now!

ATTEMPTS at together pictures...

The collages they try to suck you in and buy!

(First time I didn't give in!)

I am so proud of my beautiful kids and will cherish these pictures forever!
