Honey Mommy: Our Sunshine's First Birthday

You will have to excuse my extremely late posting this week. I had two birthdays last week, and then this week I am teaching preschool. So my computer time has been very limited.

But I just had to take a brief second to post about my little girl's first birthday! I can't believe that she is a year old now! What a cutie pie!

Little Miss Aubrey's birthday was spent with just our little family. We had a fun day together, just hanging out and playing. Daddy went to work late so he could see his little girl and wish her happy birthday, and that just warmed my heart and made my day. I am sure that Aubrey loved it too.

I managed to finish this cute little skirt, applique shirt, and hair flowers for Aubrey. She is our little sunshine, so I figured it was perfect. I think they look so cute on her!

I also gave her the shoes, which she wanted to wear the entire day. Apparently this girl likes shoes!

She did not want to wear the skirt all day, so I didn't make her. Just for the brief time I was trying to take some pictures of her. We didn't work too hard at getting perfect portraits because that's no fun for Aubrey, and it was her birthday after all!

After dinner Aubrey got to open her presents. Of course Daddy helped her out (so I could take pictures).

She didn't quite get what the big deal about opening presents was, but she was excited to play with what was inside! She especially loved the push chime that we got for her. She is really close to walking, and I know she will enjoy it a lot in the next year or so.

And then came the cake! Of course she ended up wearing about as much of her cake as she ate, but isn't that just part of the fun?

We ended our fun and fabulous day with a bath. Aubrey loves baths and she got new bath toys for her birthday, so it was a great way to end her special day.
