Happy 1st Birthday!!!

My sweet baby girl Josie B turned one-year-old!!!  I honestly can’t believe where this past year went, possibly the fastest year of my life.  It’s been amazing and I can’t imagine our life without her.  She is pure joy and the sweetest little girl.  She is curious, snuggly, a conversationalist and just plain adorable!  I’m so proud to be her mommy.  We love you to pieces baby girl!!!

We had a small family party and Josie’s friend Connor.  It was a lunchtime BBQ in the backyard.  We spent the day eating, napping, playing, crawling, smashing cake, enjoying the first taste of frosting and laughing.  Although she had no idea what was really going on, she loved every minute of it. 

On her actual birthday, one week ago today, she enjoyed a very long morning nap, playing at the kids area at the mall followed by more napping and out for dinner with Mom and Dad.  She ate more adult food than she ever has before, I’m pretty sure she knew it was her birthday.  When we got home she had one more cupcake to finish the day, mainly frosting. 

Josie was spoiled with gifts and they are still arriving!  This little one, which is a completely coincidence, she has been playing with for SEVEN-DAYS, no joke!!!  


She has a fresh wardrobe of clothing for this summer, which is washed and ready to wear.  Some toys, walkers, wagons you push/pull, have not been touched.  She has no interest in moving those little legs forward in a walking motion.  They, some day, will be fun to play with!

…and finally, what you’ve all been waiting for, pictures of our adorable little girl on her big day, cake and all! 

It's my birthday






This girl LOVES paper/cards

ooh, for me?
 

I'm ready for my cake mama
