it's my party

What a day! Addison had a really big day on Saturday...more details to come soon. Her Birthday party, however, was the highlight of the day! She wasn't quite sure what to think with all of her family and friends at the house on top of the presents, balloons, cakes and cake dots, etc., etc. We felt so blessed to have so many people there with us to celebrate Addison's first year. We love you all!

Before mommy and daddy woke me up with happy birthday hugs and kisses...


Happy National Pancake Day!!! Pancakes on my birthday...what could be better?

Special "A" pumpkin!

This is my Birthday Plate that I can use every year on my Birthday! Thanks Lindsi for personalizing it!

My darling cake from Amy Cakes! Don't you just love it?



My very own smash cake!

Pretty birthday table...

This was such an awesome gift!!! Olivia's mom had this made just for me and look, it matches my skirt!!!

This is my special Birthday Knife from LuLu and Pops. Read the little poem...isn't that sweet?



My cool hat that mom made to match my skirt. She sure likes things to match!

More details




Hudson Brown brought me a flower! Isn't he so sweet??

Opening gifts...this was so much fun!













This is my mommy's friend Carrie. They lived together in college. She drove all the way to Norman from Houston last year on my birthday just to see me! That is her baby, Scout, on her hip.



I just saw my balloons!! They are so colorful!

Why is eveyone singing to me?

Oh, for me?

I don't think I want any of that stuff! What is it?
Okay well maybe just one bite. It does look pretty yummy!

Okay, I'll have a little bit more. It's pretty tasty!

Oops! Mommy forgot my hat while everyone sang to me so we put it on for a few pics. This is such a silly hat...why am I wearing it?






Fun with Carrie and Scout. I forgot to tell you that Carrie made my shirt for me! She is so crafty! She even has an etsy shop called Front Porch Threads! You should check it out!!! Thanks Carrie for my cute birthday shirt!!!




Mommy really wanted to get a "kids picture". Most of the kids had already left by the end of the party, but she insisted on getting one anyways. She had this great idea to stick us in the wagon. I didn't want to get in that wagon!!!



Party favors for my friends (glitter bouncy balls, bubbles and stickers)!
