HAPPY FIRST BIRTHDAY MY SWEET GIRL!
My sweet girl on her first birthday in her "birthday dress". There is a crown on it and it reads" Birthday Girl"!! I bought it about 6mo. ago for $2.00 on clearance!! Whoo Hoo!!!It is finally here and gone! Sad... whimper!! She is officially ONE year old! Whew ...where did the year go? I find myself so unbelievably --I almost feel physically overwhelmed with the Lord's goodness! Celebrating her first birthday really is a full circle moment for me in many ways.
She had a great day!! We had my hubby's family in from PA and South Florida which was great! (We have fun planned, so stay tuned!!)

Enjoy the many photos!! Sorry... I am a picture taking addict too!!
This is a cookie that was sent to us in a bouquet of cookies when she was born. We saved the cookies that had her name, weight, and date on them. We froze them and got them out for her first birthday!! She thought they were very tasty!!
This was the mini-version of her BIG cake. Publix gives free baby size cakes for the first birthday for them to "dive" into! Another reason why I heart publix!! (yes, I changed her clothes. I was NOT going to let her get cake all over her pretty dress!!)
And dive she did!!!! It almost ended up on the floor before her sister caught it!
Opening her first present!! I think having Christmas first was good practice. She was a pro when her birthday came around!!
Apparently socks are still good gifts according to her face!!! (they have the traction things on the bottom so mama is happy!!)
Chasing her new pooh around!

Baby girl,
I love you more than you will know!! You are my light, laughter, pride, hope, and future!! I can't wait to see what the next year has in store!! I am so honored to be your mom! Here are the words to our special song:
A tiny turned up nose,
two cheeks just like a rose.
So sweet from head to toes.
That little girl of mine.
Two eyes that shine so bright,
two lips that kiss goodnight,
two arms that hold me tight,
that little girl of mine.
No one will ever know,
just what your coming has meant.
Mommy loves you so,
You're something heaven has sent.
You're all the world to me,
when you sit on mommy's knee,
To me you'll always be,
that little girl of mine!

It was so good to see you yesterday at church with Monkey. Dave Ramsey would be so proud of that purchase, huh? lol
The pics are beautiful, my friend, but there is no comparison to that little beauty in person!
Blessings to you today!
It looks like she liked her cake. My ds forked his to death but didn't care for it at all. Maybe ate 3 little bites that his mother forced him to try. He still doesn't have much of a sweet tooth.
