Picture Perfect

Victoria was "picture perfect" sitting for her first year portraits. She is so fun and let her crazy mother primp and prep her for the pictures. She's a trooper!

On her way!

Victoria is mastering going up stairs and walking with the help of a push cart and even feeding herself. She is such a big girl now!

Ooh la la! Playing dress up with Victoria is so much fun. Sunglasses are her favorties accessory!

Victoria found Mama's pocketbook and loves that plastic.

HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY, SWEETHEART!

Our sweetheart celebrated her first birthday and threw a fabulous party. In attendance were Papa, Cecie, her friends from the library and her playgroup. Victoria was such a social butterfly and was a great hostess to all her guests. She loved tasting her first cupcake and quickly finished it off! The theme was "sweetheart" and there were hearts everywhere for our lifelong valentine. The weather was a little cold, but it didn't stop the kids from jumping in the bounce house.
We are so blessed to have this miracle in our lives. Victoria has learned so much in just one year, and we can't wait to see what year number 2 holds for our family!

She didn't like wearing her hat and quickly let us know to take it off!

Mmmm, cupcake frosting

I am "1" year old!!!

Mmmmm, MORE frosting

Cecie taught her to put her hands on the side of her head when anyone says "Oh My Goodness!" She loves to do that when her hands are messy so food gets in her hair. She is a performer and will do just about anything to get attention.

YUMMY!!!! Eating my first cupcake and loving it!

Victoria didn't like the bounce house very much

Dinner with the family. Victoria loves going out and being seen. She waves at the waiters, other patrons and loves to take bites of food off Mama's plate.
