Paisley's Birthday Party

Our weekend started off on Friday by getting ready for Paisley's party and taking her to her 1 year check up. She now weighs 24 lbs. and is still 30 inches tall. She is healthy and we are thankful for that! She now has 9 teeth-4 top front, 3 bottom front, and one molar on the top and one on the bottom. Then on Saturday we had her party. She woke up with a runny nose on Saturday and I'm not sure if it's a cold or teething. We'll see. Hayley helped me with the whole party and she did a great job. It was adorable!!! and the food was delicious! We decided not to do a cake but to make a ladybug centerpiece out of rice krispy treats and then have cupcakes around it. We also had ice cream, pumpkin, and lemon meringue pies. For lunch, we had chicken salad sandwiches (on croissants), fruit with dip, veggies with ranch, sunchips, and a yummy salad. I made a DVD slideshow of her first year and played it for everyone. It was a little long, but I had so many pictures, I couldn't narrow it down any further lol Then she opened her presents. She got a lot of wonderful gifts. Thank you everyone for coming and the gifts..she is playing with all of her new toys right now and she will be wearing her new clothes and reading her books soon!!

This is the morning of her party...she had a rice krispy hanging from her nose that looked like a booger lol

This is her battle wound of the day. Right before her party started she was practicing her walking and fell into a kitchen chair

Paisley is 1!!

Today was Paisley's 1st birthday and let's just say I was emotional this morning lol It's weird...I'm excited and happy that she's getting older but yet I was sad that she's growing up so fast! She is just the cutest little thing. She is now walking, thanks to Aunt Rach, but still crawls more. She loves drinking from cups, water bottles, and her sippy cup with a straw. She has been saying out lately but I don't know if she knows what she's saying lol It's cute though because she totally pronounces the "t" at the end. and she sounds like a Canadian because she says it more like oowt (if that makes sense lol). She got her first real taste of candy at Halloween and she loves candy...chocolate. She is still a little spitfire and I love it! I love how she has her own personality and she know what she wants. It's so cool to see how she now brings me her container with snacks in it because she understands that she is hungry and if she brings it to me, I'll give her some. It's amazing how much she has grown and learned in this past year. She has the cutest smile! I love her round face with chubby cheeks...which she'll never lose. She was born small but with chubby cheeks like her mom's :) We just moved her to her own crib in her own room last week. It was hard but I'm glad we did it...it was about time lol We also switched her to whole milk a week ago and she is doing well with it. Chris loves it too, because 1. it's cheaper and 2. he loves whole milk so he gets to drink it too lol. Oh and she also got a new carseat last week. yay! Her party is on Saturday, but we also celebrated today by going to Apple Hill and then having dinner at my parent's.

Paisley loved this ride so much...

...that she cried when it stopped lol
