One

Our little Bailey turned one yesterday! Since we are a thousand miles away from all the people we would normally celebrate with, we had a quiet "party" with just me, Daddy, and Kale. And, to be completely honest, it was GREAT! No invitations to send out, no (major) messes to clean up, no planning to be done........SO RELAXING!! Fear not, however, I'm sure we'll make up for it next year when she turns two--you can expect your invite around the first of June 2010 :)

I would tell more about the party, but I think the pictures pretty much sum everything up: Kale helped decorate the cake (so beautiful, as you'll see), she loved the presents, we had a short dance party (at Kale's request), and then it was time for bed. In lieu of a long description about the celebration, let me tell you a few things about our Bailey Anne:

• She has many nicknames, including, but not limited to: Bailey Boo, Boo-Boo, Piggly-Wiggly, Princess, and most recently, Wild-Woman
  
  
• She is a daring and curious little girl....much more adventurous than her older brother.....could be a problem when she hits middle school......... :)



• She LOVES bath time, and even tries to climb in the tub when it's not her turn
  
  
• She loves digging in the sand and spreading it all over herself until she is a complete mess



• When she sees something new and exciting, she sucks in a big breath and exclaims, "Ah-Da!"


• Anytime she sees a stuffed animal, she squeals with delight and gives it a cuddly hug


• She without a doubt rules our house....but look at that face, can you really blame us?? :)
