Party Planning




We've been doing some birthday sprucing around the house. Getting ready for a little party...



The beginnings of tissue paper flowers
party favors

I've been thinking about Little One's first birthday since before she was born. There are such emotions intermingled with this milestone. I can't decided if I want to jump for joy or break down and cry. Darn hormones. Do they ever even out again?


Anyway, we're looking forward to a big celebration of a precious life. There are days that I don't know what I'm going to do, having this child. And there are days in which I have no idea what I did before having our sweet girl. Mainly the latter. What a gift. What a blessing. Just when I think it can't get any sweeter....

And on a totally unrelated note, Little One's hair is beginning to look a bit like this poor lion's. See the resemblance?

Your decorations are fabulous, and I especially like your party favor! What a great idea!

Her hair, by the way, is adorable. I don't even want to talk about managing Addison's - sheesh...
