My Littlest (and last) Turns 1!!

Holy Cow!  I can't believe my little baby is 1!  The way she decided to come into this world caused me so many tears and now it's been a year!  She was skin and bone when she was born and now she is this big cute chunk!

We were actually in Colorado on her actual birthday and it was the day we were flying home.  We celebrated by stopping at the Butterfly Pavillion on the way to the airport.  She LOVED it!  You go into this big tropical room with thousands of butterflies flying all over.

When we got home we took the family to Baskin Robbins so Riley could have her first clown cone!

We had a party for her the following Sunday.  My parents came from Utah and we had a few friends over.  Probably the simplest birthday party I've ever done, but we showered her with love and kisses and cake! The theme was "cute as a button" because she is!




My mom made her a little hat that she refused to wear! 


A little button bouquet




We gave her the cake.  She seemed intriqued.
She tried it.  It was gooood.
She decided just to go for it!  :)

Little Miss Riley has about the biggest attitude of any 1 year old I've ever known.  She can be a handful, but she can also be the sweetest little thing on the planet. She has the cutest little giggle and keeps us all laughing.  I love her so much and am so glad we decided to do IVF "just one more time!"

Jennefer, Riley is such a little cutie! I can't wait til Kylie and I get to meet her one day! And I just LOVE the button theme, so fun & creative. I need to start thinking of ideas for Kylie's party.

Thanks! I love looking through other blogs for party ideas. A good one is Hostess with the Mostess. So many cute ideas for parties! We should get together one day. We could meet in Stockton one day for lunch or something!
