Kylee's 1st birthday!!!!!

I don't know where this year went. I can't believe Kylee is already 1. She is growing up way too fast. We are so lucky to have her sweet little spirit in our lives. I just had to dress her up to be the "Queen of the day". She only lasted about 5 minutes in this dress because it hinders her crawling abilities and she gets quite upset.

The crown lasted less than 5 minutes, but atleast she was a good sport for a few pictures.

I think she's eyeing her present.

Kylee is preparing to eat her first cupcake ever. She actually picked out the one she wanted by sticking her feet into it.

I did a butterfly/flower theme. After I made these I didn't want anyone to eat them. All that work goes down the drain in 2 seconds.

Zac was feeling like he needed to help Kylee pose. I thought he was going to be really jealous and stuff, but he was actually extra nice to her on her birthday and he wasn't sad at all about her getting all the presents. He just couldn't wait to eat cupcakes.

So Kylee decided to touch the fire. I think it burned her finger a little.

Yep. Pretty sure it burned her finger. She never cries unless there is good reason.

She got over the candle incident pretty quick and dove right into her cupcake. She just learned to feed herself about a week ago. That was good timing because it would have been kinda lame if I had to feed it to her.

I think she likes it.

This is what Ben and I gave her. Zac loved it as much as Kylee, so I guess it was a hit. Zac says he's sharing it with her. What a sweet brother to share her own toy with her (haha!!). By the way Zac is in his underwear because he decided he needed a bath while the rest of us were eating and getting ready for the cupcake feast. I had to bribe him to get out and join us. He wanted to be naked, but I made him at least put his undies on.

We had the Zastrows, the Parsons and our neighbor Bonnie over to eat cupcakes and sing happy birthday to Kylee with us. I'm glad we have such good friends here to celebrate special occasions with us when our families can't be here. We love and miss all of you and hope you enjoy our recap of the big ONE.
