My baby is 1!

Yesterday was Brinley's birthday. This year has flown by so fast, and at the same time it seems we've had her forever. She is so sweet. I spent the first six weeks of her life just holding her. I hardly ever put her down. I may be paying for it now, she is a total mommy's girl. Those nights that she wouldn't go to bed until 1:00 am seem so far in the past. She's a good little sleeper now. She got her first two teeth at 81/2 months and the third is still just teasing at coming through. She took her first crawl on her ten month birthday, and she is all over the place now. She's starting to think about walking along the couch. She started out so big, 9lbs. 10 ounces, and is just at 20 pounds now. Although you wouldn't think she'd be little to watch her eat. I don't think she has ever been satisfied enough to stop eating. Just don't give her peaches - puke fest! I'm not brave enough to try it again yet.


These are some pre b-day pics I took to get one for her party invitation.




I did a "Super Sweet Lollipop" theme and made these lollipop invites.


The cake and decorations! I'm sure my husband thinks I'm crazy. Thanks for your help, Katie!


Not my best cake, but I thought the lollipops were cute. It did taste really good, though!


We had her party on Sunday to make it easier for the fam to come. Unfortunately Sundays are always hard on the nap schedule. She had only gotten a one hour nap all day long! We had to give her a lollipop off of the cake to keep her in a good mood. Whatever works! It was a lot of fun.
She is the only one of my kids who hasn't been sick on her first birthday. Therefore she is the only one who has enjoyed her cake. And enjoy she did! There was cake everywhere, I completely dismantled the high chair to get it clean.




I love you, my sweet little squishy munchkin!!
