.:Hallie's First Birthday:.

Good Morning Birthday Girl!
{May 18th}
Her balloons and and presents!
Hallie in her balloon filled crib
They love playing in this thing, it keeps them entertained!
Hallie has always loved balls, so we thought she would love this ball pit






Opening her present from Aunt Sheri, she is so thoughtful
{The Party}
It was a cupcake/flower themed party
Her flower cake
Her giant cupcake
Another cupcake... I couldn't decide which style of cupcake I liked the best, so I ended up doing them both! I loved the "cupcake liner" on this one, I thought it was so cute
Her clothespin doll
Some of the party guests


Bryn LOVES her cousins

{Opening Gifts}
She got so many cute books and adorable outfits. And the cutest baby doll.
We are thankful to have both of our families there and grandparents/great grandparents that live close by. It's always fun to get together with family


We have a tradition that after the birthday girl/boy opens their presents they have to go around and hug everyone. After Hallie's first round of hugs Jeff took her around again to give high fives to everyone. It was pretty cute
Singing happy birthday and presenting her with her cake!
She didn't really want anything to do with it at first...

And she cried when Jeff tried to stick her hands in it...
So he dipped her binkie in the frosting and I think she liked that



She got a little more into it, but didn't really care. I totally thought she would have dug right into it
She did get a little messy

Happy First Birthday Hallie!

So darling! I love the balloons in their room tradition you guys do! I'm nervous about making the cupcake, I don't think mine can look as good as yours!

Natalie, you are such a good cake decorater and you have such creative ideas. I think you should teach a cake decorating class. I know of about 10 people that would love to have you teach them all of your creative skills!!
