Birthday Girl!

I really can not believe that it has already been a year ago that Lydia was  entering the world as a tiny 7 lb. 10 oz baby! My how time fly's oh so fast, oh too fast!

Although I love her being a baby and sometimes wish she would stay small forever, I also enjoyand love watching her grow and learn new things Everyday!

Lydia is now walking like a pro and talking like... well a one year old.

She says baba, mama, dada, dog, duck, dora, pizza  and many more words which are definitely debatable.

She mimics sounds all the time so its hard to know if she is saying words or just imitating the sound of the word, either way it seems pretty good to me! 

She is a chatter box and will try to have a conversation with anyone she comes across. 

Lydia Loves strangers and if shes having a bad day all we have to do it go out in public and she will be all smiles waving to everyone she see's. 

She's also constantly holding to phone up to her ear to say "hi dada", Lydia LOVES her Daddy!

She has so much personality for a little 1 yr old and makes us laugh all day long!

So here's the sweet little birthday girl!

Since she LOVES ELMO I made her an Elmo birthday cake (which took me way to long to make) and then some fun cupcakes to satisfy my need for a bit more of a girly party 

Lydia did great digging right into her cake and shoving it in her mouth!

Here are some before and after pictures 

Poor Elmo

Happy Birthday Lydia! 

You'll never know how much you are Loved and the Joy you bring to so many people!
