Lilly's First Birthday Pics...Finally!

Here's our little Birthday girl! Better late than never, right? She is now 13 mo old (and keeping us on our toes) but I wanted to share some pictures of her day. Mom & I spent all summer planning it - it was something fun & exciting to look forward to, and it ended up being better than I had imagined. We were so happy to have lots of family here to celebrate with us, but missed those who couldn't be here.

Here is the Birthday girl!



With her sweet cousin, Sierra, who loves to give her hugs & kisses!



The girls that made it happen, Aunt Barb, Mommy, Grandma Bonnie, and especially Grandma - I could never have pulled this off without their help! And Jana, too! I don't know how she missed this picture. I think she was busy chasing after the kiddos! :)



There's Aunt Jana!





Finn was totally in his element - he is my party boy and was so excited that this day was finally here!





The details...





Cupcakes from Cupcake a la mode - the best cupcakes in KC! And we did a taste test to make sure! :) I did make Lilly's cake, though! :)



And Cupcake Push-Up Pops for favors, so fun!



Found an amazing cookie lady - beautiful work & they taste as good as they look!







And now time for Lilly's first bite of cake. Finn helped out a little. She really enjoyed the cake, but the ice cream hit the spot!













All clean now, thanks Grandma!



Cupcake sandwiches for the kiddos...



Cousin Neale...



Cousin Rowan...cutie pie!



Having fun on the bounce house with Eleni and the rest of the big kids...



Time for presents! She got some really fun, cute things and loves playing with her new toys!





She had lots of help opening gifts! :)



This is one of my favorite pictures from the whole day!



I still cannot believe that she is one. She is at such a fun stage and we are cherishing every minute. We are so blessed to have her and her big brother in our lives! Hope you enjoyed the pictures & maybe I'll get in the habit of posting a little more often now! :)
