Happy 1st Birthday!

As of 3:09 p.m. yesterday, my little stinker was officially 1 year old!! I still can't believe her birthday is here. It just seems like yesterday I was in the hospital holding my new precious baby. And now....well, she is 1! We had an awesome time at her birthday party, and you can tell from the pic that our theme was Minnie Mouse! She just loves Minnie! Everyone showed up around 2 o'clock and mingled and snacked. We ate first and enjoyed some hot diggity dogs courtesy of our own Mickey Mouse Clubhouse!! Next, we let Keagan blow out her candle and dig in to her own little cake made by mommy. She had one Minnie Mouse outfit to begin the festivities, and another Minnie Mouse outfit to change into after she tore apart her own little Minnie Mouse cake. =) She had this stuff everywhere!! Her sleeves went from pink to black in a matter of a minute. She was a little unsure what to do at first, but with the persuasion of big sister, she quickly figured out it was to make a mess!! After everyone enjoyed some of the cake and ice cream, we opened gifts! And wow did she make out!! She was soooo funny. I had to put the presents back in the bag and out of sight to get her to focus on the next present!! Thanks guys. It was really nice to just hang out and talk and see everyone. Get updated on everyone's babies and current pregnancies. Keagan played the rest of the afternoon, and if you read my previous blog, she took her first two steps! It was the most amazing thing in the world. And there was a crowd full of people to see. I knew she was going to be my little showstopper!!
What an awesome day!!
We had a ton of guests, gifts, food, cake, ice cream, and good times were had by all. Thank you to all of you who came and thank you for all the amazing gifts. I was really suprised, but somehow we did not get one thing duplicated between all the christmas and birthday presents. So...good job guys. =)
I had about 300 pictures from the party, so I decided to do something similiar to the picture insert that was in the invitation and create some collages. Then, I added some extra pictures. We are so blessed to have two amazing children, amazing friends and family, and the ability to celebrate with all of them.
Happy 1st Birthday Keagan Jade Stuart!
