Emma's Birthday Party

Well, it's been here and now its gone:(....... my baby's 1!!! I will admit, I shed a tear... or two. Anyway, thanks to everyone who made it to the party and for your wonderful gifts! Here are some pictures, even though I didn't get many ( I never do at my kids' parties). My brother was able to get a few of Emma opening presents, but I'm going to have to figure out a better photo strategy when it comes to my parties:) This video is of Lakin singing her sister Happy Birthday.... I thought it was a good start to this blog.

Poor baby was SOO tired but she refused to lay down and take a nap. I finally gave her a bottle ( she hadn't had a full one all day!!) and she just couldn't make it:) She's nver fallen asleep with a bottle before..... she just couldn't hang on any longer.
