Abby's 1st Birthday

Abby turned 1 on March 19th! Crazy!!!! Her party was the following Saturday -- we celebrated with lots of friends, family, food, and CAKE (more on that in a minute). My dear friend Carrie and Abby's Aunt Desiree were kind enough to take pictures so I could enjoy the party. Carrie's are here in the blog, while Desiree's will be featured soon :) Thanks again!!!

The setting:

One awesome cake!







The birthday girl!:



During "Happy Birthday!"






She could hardly let the ball go -- her favorite toy EVER












The cake eating:

Not too interested (I had to feed her the cake)


Decided she didn't like it at all!


She just wanted strawberries (the mess on her face was Daddy's doing for a good picture, lol)

The friends and family:


Abby loves her Aunt Desiree

Aunt Desiree, Cousin Dianna, and a grumpy birthday girl :)

Updates

I know, I know! As I was reminded today by Angela, this blog is sorely in need of an update (many updates!).

The biggest reason it was unattended for so long is . . . . I'm pregnant! We found out not long after New Year's, and until a few weeks ago, I was oh-so sick. Ugh. But, I'm now feeling better and ready to keep the fam and friends all updated :)

Soooooooo, here we go!

Since Christmas, Abby has:

1. Cut her 6th tooth!
2. Started WALKING (at 11 months)
3. Decided baby food is yucky
4. Started dancing every time she hears music
5. Added "kitty" to her vocabulary
6. Had a visit from her brother, Brandon, again
7. Had an awesome 1st birthday party!!!

But enough with the words . . . pics are coming in just a minute . . . . :)
