Annie turns 1.

Oh, my sweet baby girl. What a perfect addition you have been to our family. You bring out the best in everyone.

At the crack of dawn, all the kiddies were up to celebrate--and the gift giving began! The big girls had been squirreling away old toys they thought Annie would enjoy, and they periodically presented her with various stuffed animals and such throughout the day.

In the evening, Linda, Lou, and Sarah came bearing pizza and rice crispy treats. We supplied the party hats and bubbly, and the party began!

Linda had made a little heart-shaped individual treat for Annie. Perfect.

It was a sticky, sweet, relaxed evening. Just like our baby. We love you, Annie girl!
