Happy Birthday to Charlotte!

We had a very small, last minute gathering to celebrate our baby girl turning ONE! It was a stress free, fun Sunday afternoon eating cake and catching up with old friends of mine. It's hard to believe I was in elementary school with these friends 25 years ago and now we all have children of our own.

 Every first birthday for a baby girl requires pretty flowers, right?!

 Her smash cake :) I had to have Olexas do it since they did William's first birthday cake. 

 William was a VERY proud big brother and was all about Charlotte's "party."

He loves being in charge so I gave him the special task of putting candles on the cake ;)

Since Charlotte prefers to be on my hip every waking moment...the birthday girl got her wish and made mommy be in all these pics ;)

I had to share the one above because this is mid "loving her baby" (imaginary one in this pic)

Concerned big brother...who knows about what!

Baby Lila has my whole heart. I know she and Charlotte will be besties like their mommas!

A little skeptical and hesitant about her cake

So of course big brother and Quinn had to jump in and show her how it's done!

Charlotte and Collins go to Ms. Rita's together. They were done by this point. haha!

Another one of Charlotte's new silly faces!

The whole crew + a neighbor that showed up ;)

Because every birthday girl needs to end her party crying in her Daddy's lap. It was a great day celebrating our birthday girl!
