First Birthday!

Mary Adams turned one last Saturday, September 4th! We had a family birthday party at home so she was the only child there- oh well, she certainly did not mind being the absolute center of attention! Here she is coming downstairs right after she woke up. She loves balloons so we had a ton waiting for her.

Charley and I got her a little kitchen and had it set up that morning for her to see. It only took a couple of hours for him to put it together!

Birthday breakfast. She would not let go of that balloon the entire time she ate!

At the party opening her presents. Sweet Nana gave her the American Girl Bitty Baby. Mary Adams loves kissing it!

Food for her kitchen

Birthday lunch at the party

Mary Adams' strawberry cake and cupcake!

It took her a while to figure out the icing but now I think she's in love!

Too busy to pose...

Worn out after a long birthday! And yes, Ruby is still wearing the collar- should come off very soon though!!

What a great birthday and the weather was amazing! Later, while my mom and Milly babysat the dads, brothers, Charley, and I went to the Carolina/LSU game. Not such a good ending score on a great day but it was wonderful getting into the football scene again!
