(if you can't tell her shirt is a cupcake with one candle on it :)
My baby is one.....sigh. I decided to spend the day doing things Lyla loves. We had a picnic at the park, ate all her favorite foods and moved out all the furniture in the living room and played with toys all day. For her party, I decided to have it that Saturday with just family. The over-doer in me wanted to do a big grandiose bash, but then I realized doing that would mean I would spend the whole day getting ready for adults and not Lyla. I'd be paying attention to hosting and cleaning, etc, and NOT her....so we did it small but fun. We blew up the swimming pool and filled it with balls, one of Lyla's fav. The party treats were toddler food and everyone pretty much sat on the floor. Lyla had fun playing with all her stuff with the cousins and was spoiled rotten. I think she had a pretty good day:) I did good most the day but I have to admit I started choking up when we started singing her happy birthday. I don't know why, just thinking this is my sweet little miracle baby here, and celebrating one whole year of life. It really is quite amazing when you think about it. She is simply amazing. Really, she is.
Playin
The birthday chair!
TOYS!! We got her the wagon which she LOVES
The CAKE & Cupcakes: Caterpillars to Butterfly. Get it???
Opening all those gifts!
This is a cloth tent to go over a card board table Jenny made. Cute huh??
Blowing out the Candles!
Suprisingly, Lyla was super timid and wouldn't dig in. I eventually took off a chunk and gave it to her to eat. I don't think she knew what to think about that giant butterfly
YUM!

Oh my gosh, Brycen is huge compared to her ha ha. I'm finding that more and more these days with other babies! I can't believe your little one is one already. The cupcakes turned out great! I love her dress. Great color!
You're awesome and I couldn't be happier for you and Todd. We went through almost the same thing with our kids....5 years to get Breck and one try to get Sloan...weird!
