Emma's 1st Birthday!

We had such a great time at Emma's 1st birthday party! We had a house full of family and friends! We filled the front room with tons and tons of balloons and the kids had a blast!!! Luckily Emma woke up from her nap first so she really got to enjoy them before her big brother came through like a tornado! haha. She ran through them back and forth giggling and laughing. She was in heaven! She was in such a great mood all day showing off for everyone and being as cute as can be! It's hard to believe our little angel is already a year old & yet it's hard to imagine life before she was a part of it. She is such a joy! She is also a TOTAL girl! I swear, I don't know where she gets it. I'm not much of a girly girl but she is!!! Without being taught she loves to carry around purses. She was always trying to lug my big purse around so we finally got her a little one of her own and she loves to put her play cell phone and keys inside and carry it around with her. At her birthday party she was digging into the presents faster than I could open them and she would pull out all the clothes and carry them around close to her chest as if they were her prize possessions. It was adorable!!! She also already loves to talk on the phone. She puts it up to her ear and says "hello! hello!" Sometimes if no one is there she'll just dial numbers until she gets the operator saying its a wrong number. She thinks they are talking to her and she loves it! haha. We are having such fun watching her grow. Her brother picks on her... as any big brother will do, but they love each other so much. You should see the smiles on each others faces when they wake up in the morning and see each other. They always give hugs and kisses 'night night' before bed. Whenever she falls down he is right there trying to pick her up or taking me over to her and telling me "momma, emma up." So cute! We couldn't feel more blessed!

(I'd like to say that the kids were there playing with the balloons with my mom, grandpa, and uncle but truly I think they were just being big kids and tossing the balloons back and forth between each other. haha!)
