Happy 1st Birthday Odee!

Happy Birthday to our sweet baby girl!. Olivia turned 1 yesterday (March 20th). Your dad and I can't believe how fast the past year has gone by. It feels like we just brought you home from the hospital. Olivia you have truly lightened our family's life. You are such a sweet happy girl who has a lot of love to give. We love you Odee.

Here are some of the fun things your doing at age one---
*Big big smiles. Always have a smile to give.
*Give hugs while patting our back.
*For some strange reason think you need a binki when it's time to sleep, you suck it a couple times and then spit it out.
*Still think nursing is awesome.
*Favorite food is goldfish.
*Pretend to wash your hair in the tubby.
*Adore your brother Jackson, and he adores you back.
*Stand up on EVERYTHING and love to get into EVERYTHING.
*Sing when you hear music.
*Everything you touch goes directly into your mouth.
*Say Mama and Dada.
*Get excited and crawl as fast as you can when you hear the front door open.
*Love to be outside.
*Love to play patty cake.

We had a small birthday party for Olivia today---a polka dot party! It was strange not having grandparents, aunts and uncles or cousins here to celebrate but thank you to all who called and sent gifts---Olivia was grateful :)



I made a banana cake. Olivia loves bananas.

She was very excited about her cake and candle. I had to hold her back from grabbing it.

Once she had the chance to eat it she wasn't sure what to do.
"Is this really mine?"

"You sure I can eat this?"

"Oh yeah that's good!"

"Best first birthday ever!"


Happy birthday beautiful girl---we love you!

Happy, happy birthday Olivia! I called and tried to talk to you on your birthday, but you were too busy for me. I still love you and think you are so cute and can't wait to see you in a couple of months to give you kisses. You and Maisy could get into a lot of trouble!

By the way, love the polk-a-dot theme. Way cute. Did you make that shirt Odee is wearing? So crafty Aimee.
