the par.tay

who is ready to see a lot of pictures of a one year old
opening presents and eating cake!
the party was a hit -
and i am only a little relieved to have it over.
lets start with the invite:


i warned you that i was really going to go
for it with the owl theme

( i am really proud - i made that banner myself)

can't believe we have a one year old!


♥♥♥

hanging with the family

opening some presents

and finally the cake!
after one failed attempt
we came up with an owl cake -
and it looks like she enjoyed it!
i was actually surprised when
grets went in for the cake and ate
as much as she did.
grets had a great birthday,
and we are so grateful for all who came
and celebrated with us..
♥ you all!

..one..

today is the day...
greta is one!
it is such a bittersweet day.
bitter because i no longer have a teeny tiny baby that holds
still and lets me cuddle and kiss her
but it is very
sweet because she is growing and healthy and fun and interactive!
also, it is sweet because on this day i am not recovering from a 22 hour labor like last year!

♥♥

grets is a busy lady these days..
not walking yet, but i have a feeling it will be soon.
she does the cutest wave, and will wave at anyone and anywhere.
she has 6 teeth - and finally has an appetite!
(i am praying it will stay that way)
she loves to play and loves kids and really loves elmo and the price is right.
not to make anyone jealous, but she is the cutest and best baby there is!
we love you grets,
happy birthday!

matched

 
i am usually not a big fan of futuristic books..
but i obvioulsy loved the hunger games
so i decided to give matched a try,
and i really liked it. 
definitely try it
if you are looking for a fast and easy read!

is this bad?



i have a confession:
greta is a bit obsessed / enthralled 
with the sex and the city theme song.
really, she is.
she will stop what ever she is doing,
 stare at the tv,
smile,
 and do a litle dance.
she just can not help it!
will you all judge me a little less
if i told you at least they are the edited episodes?


faves

 




i love both these magazines,
i read them both all month long until i get my next issue.
thanks mama and rob for the subscription!
