My baby is one tomorrow...

My Baby Rose will be one tomorrow!! I can hardly believe it!!!!!

Where has the year gone!! It feels weird that this time last year i was getting ready to go to hospital early the next morning. That this time last year i was so heavily pregnant and i was getting everything ready - making sure all the lists were done and that the girls had their things ready, packing my bag and cleaning the house.

In many ways it has been a wonderful year and in many ways it has been a hard year. It has been wonderful to have my Rosie and those first precious moments together, wonderful to watch her grow and laugh and play with the older girls. There are so many wonderful things that it is hard to list them all and i am grateful for all the time we have had so far and so happy that i had almost a whole year at home with all three girls before Ella went to school.
It has been a difficult year adjusting to having 3 small children, each with their own personalities and each with individual needs. it has been tricky juggling all of their activities and still finding time to spend with each of them and sadly Rosie has probably been the one who has missed out on a lot of time spent with her just simply because we are so busy going from place to place. That is one thing i hope to change this year - I hope to spend more time with Rose to just enjoy her while she is little still because she is my last baby. Emotionally, mentally and physically it has been a hard and exhausting year. There are many things about myself i would like to change.
Rose had a hard time for the first 6 months due to illness and pnuemonia etc but now she is physically well but now of course she is a cranky baby who cries and cries so i hope that she will get over this stage soon.
So now i should be getting everything ready for Rose's birthday tomorrow!! I am so happy for her and her sisters are very very excited and have wrapped some presents for her which i hope she will love.
Phew i hope tomorrow goes ok. I am totally exhausted.
