she's ONE!!

birthday girl gets a birthday lei!
she loves wearing these bead necklaces! takes them on and off all day long :) one of the party favors...
really really loves reading! our diaper bag is full of books just in case ;)
ack! where did the time go... we are officially parents of a ONE YEAR OLD!! crazy crazy! we had her try out the whole cake thing... and she was as delicate as can be :) only used one finger at a time!

phoebe is an absolute joy! her first word was dog (said months and months ago)... daughter after my own heart :) and her comprehension is beyond what i ever imagined a one year old understanding. she has 6 teeth and not quite walking by herself, just loves pushing any mobile furniture around the room! the more the little miss can do the happier she becomes. i LOVE to watch her thinking and joy in almost eating her up everyday :) she's selective about giving her kisses and love away. she is a jibber jabber and tries so hard to get words out! i imagine when she can make sentences we're in for a SERIOUS conversation :)

while this wasn't my "dream" first birthday... can't say that i ever had a dream one year old birthday plan anyway?? (where are my sisters when i need them to come and decorate for the festivities!!) she and we were every bit happy to celebrate with family and party it on up! happy birthday to our little miss phoebe maye!!

I didn't know she was dainty with her b-day cake too! How sweet is that! It seemed like a colorful party! Love her lei (sp?) what a cute tradition. Wish we could have been there!
