And the Birthday Party....

Well, it's Wednesday after the big First Birthday Party and I think I'm beginning to recover! :)  We had such a great time and enjoyed it so much.  We're so glad our friends and family were able to come celebrate this special occasion with us and with Kate.  Kate had a pink and brown party!

Pretty much everything was pink and brown!

It was a beautiful day!

Kathryn and Kate with her new shoes...PRECIOUS!!!  Kathryn put the "sparkles" on the shoes and laced the cute pink ribbon through.  I'm LOVIN' these shoes.

It's hard to believe her first birthday party is over!  It came and went, pretty much just like that first year.
Not much is new these days, other than the fact that we no longer have an infant, but a one year old.  We've been working on switching from bottle to sippy.  It seems to be going ok...sometimes.  She's only getting whole milk now, no formula.  Still doing bottles here and there just to be sure she gets some milk in somewhere during the day.  She still hasn't quite mastered drinking the milk from the sippy.  I've also been working on transitioning her from so much baby food to more table food.  That's been a challenge as well!  Still working on coming up with good ideas for her.
Halloween will be here soon!  Kate is going to be a Lady Bug this year.  Trick or treat!

Happy Fall Y'all!

Love this time of year!
