The first.

Baleigh...my sister's first daughter, my parent's first grandchild, my first niece, the first child to steal a small piece of my heart. She loves all things most little girls hate...bugs, dirt, superhero capes and ninja turtles. She has an almost hilarious distaste for dresses. This photo was taken when she was 3 and it is still my favorite. It is Baleigh in a nutshell.


She is 7 now, in her terms I'm sure it is 7 and one month. She has grown so quickly, and is at that annoying and way too awkward stage. She likes things 'big kids' like now; but if you look closely every once in a while you can still see the remnants of the same girl holding that lizard. My sister recently relocated to Denver, Colorado and I think harder than my sister moving, has been Baleigh moving.
