Olivia's Birthday Party

Well we had Olivia's first birthday party at our house this weekend. Thankfully the weather was great so the kids were able to play outside and i think they had fun. Olivia didn't know what to think about so many people being in her house at one time but of course she loved all the attention. We are so lucky to have so many people who wanted to celebrate our little pumpkins birthday with us. It was a ladybug theme and i think it turned out really cute.



Here is the cake. I think it turned out so cute! The little one of course is her own personal cake.


The birthday girl is patiently waiting for her cake.




olivia eating her cake. Or should i say picking the dots off of it. I thought she would DESTROY the cake, but instead she wanted to pick at the dots and icing.



Tired Girl! She was done with this cake mess! (and i do mean MESS!!!)

Unfortunately i did not get any still pics of her opening presents because i was helping her open and Eric was videotaping so i will have to get those from someone else. She was so funny though, she wanted to play with the paper. Then we would finally the gift open and she would try to play with it and it would just get taken away and another unopened gift it its place. She would look around so confused like "hey i wanted to play with that". She got so many precious outfits and fun toys to play with. We got all of her new toys out yesterday and she had been playing ever since.
I can't believe my baby girl is one year old. She is such a sweet, funny girl. We love this little girl to peices and she had made this the best year ever.

Happy Birthday Olivia!

My sweet girl turned one yesterday, i can't believe it! This year has went by so fast. The weather was so nasty yesterday that we stayed home and played all day for her birthday. Daddy even came home early and brought her presents. Today we went to the dr. for her check-up and shots. She weighs 19lbs 15.5oz(30th precentile), 29in (50th) I can't believe my chunky monkey is only in the 30th precentile for weight, her pedi says she is finally growing "up" instead of "out". She finally has 2 teeth that started coming in last month. We were wondering if she would ever have teeth :) Bless her heart, we took her paci away this week and she is down to one bottle a day but it will be gone also in the next few days. So far she has done good. We were worried about her sleeping without the paci, it takes her a little longer to go to sleep but it has went better than i thought it would. She is such a sweet, silly little girl. Her birthday party is this weekend, i can't wait to see her eat her cake and tear into her presents. I promise i will post tons of pictures later.
My ten year class reunion was this past weekend. Where did all the time go? I feel like i just graduated from high school. (i wish i looked like i did when i graduated from high school :) We had a good time, it felt like old times again.
Thanks so much for checking on us, i will post pics soon!
