Ryanne Turns 11!

Ryanne Madison Garn turns 11 today.

Wow is all I can say. I knew the day would come that she would be older and not play with dolls anymore, I just wasn't prepared for my little girl to be not so little. Ryanne is an amazing young girl. I thank God everyday for her in our lives. How did I get so blessed. Last night she was bouncing off the walls because today was her birthday. This morning at 12:48 am she tells me she is now 11. At least i was already up with her brother who had a bad dream. It was so fun to see her excitement, she was dressed and ready to go before 6am. I thought I would add a picture for each year. What a beautiful little lady.

When Ryanne was born the Doctor wanted to induce my labor. So since I was ready we went ahead and did it. I did have a choice in check in times so I choose to check in on Feb 29. I didn't want a leap year baby. Her labor was pretty uneventful. Just long and long. At around 10:30 at night on March 1st she came into the world with her daddy's hands. What an amazing experience.
