Happy Birthday Baby Girl!

Today was E's birthday and I can't believe a year ago today we were holding our "little" (ha, almost 9lbs) baby girl in our arms and talking about how we couldn't believe we were lucky enough to have gorgeous children twice!!  We are 2 for 2 baby!!!

E had a wonderful day.  Here is a little of how it went down from her point of view for everyone who wishes they were here with us today!!

I had a very eventful day!  Mommy, Daddy, and Bubba woke me up singing Happy Birthday to me and I didn't know what they were doing but I sure did love to dance to their pretty song!!  I got so excited bouncing and dancing that I hit my mouth on my crib railing...ouch!!  But then Mommy picked me up and all was good!! 

It was day 3 of no bottle and I was still a little cranky about my soothing bottle being taken away and replaced by this mean ole' slow sippy cup.  Mommy gave me breakfast of whole wheat pancakes, bananas, and yogurt.  Then we went to drop Bubba off at school.  I really do love him so - I have the best brother in the world!  After we dropped him off we went to Wal-Mart and did some shopping and Mommy got me some new big girl snacks to help keep me nice and full so I will stop screaming for my bottle all the time and making her feel bad.  When we got home I took a nap and then tried some new foods for lunch which I was not fond of.  Mommy gave me bananas, peaches, lasagna, and green beans, most of which ended up on the floor. Then she gave me vienna sausages to try but I didn't like those very much either.  Mommy doesn't ever worry too much about that though cause my puppy, Jack is really good at cleaning up for me.  He doesn't like bananas though so Mommy said I had to stop throwing those on the floor. 

After lunch we went downstairs where I'm supposed to play so Mommy can get some work done but I wasn't very in to that today - I thought it would be much more fun to play with Mommy.  I grabbed her papers for work and tried to pull them off the couch, I tried to help her work by typing on her computer, and I even tried to help her open up her computer screen all the way so she could see but for some reason Mommy just kept laughing and calling me "trouble" whatever that means!  She finally gave up and got on the floor and let me crawl all over her and scream my high pitched scream which is one of my favorite things to do!  Then we had to go pick my bubba up from school and I took another nap in the car.  After that we picked Daddy up and went to Chick-fil-A for my birthday dinner.  After Mommy saw my disdain for lasagna she decided spaghetti probably wouldn't be the best dinner choice so chicken it was!  I ate four whole chicken nuggets!  Mommy and Daddy couln't belive it because I'm growing so fast now!

When we came home Mommy and Daddy sang to me some more - they sure do like that Happy Birthday song - and we opened up some more presents.  Mommy and Daddy got me a blankie just like the one my bubba has but this one was made for me!  I also got a guitar to work with my Rock'n Elmo that Nana got me - I love to hear him play music and dance and then I can dance too!  I also got my Disney Princess Parade figurine which Mommy and Daddy are collecting for me!  It was a wonderful day and I am so blessed to have such wonderful family and friends!  Can't wait to share the next year with you all!!
