Presley's 1 Year Pictures

We took Presley for her 1 year pictures yesterday morning and she did really well. She wasn't to keen on wanting to sit on things. It made her a little nervous. Other than that she was great. Below are a few of her shots. :) Enjoy!

We love our Red Wagon!!!

Yay for the Red Wagon!!

Being like Mommy!

Exploring her new wagon
Riding in the wagon is hard work!!

Hi Mom!!

Presley's 1st Birthday

Happy Birthday Sweet Presley!!

Waking up after her nap and seeing everyone!!

Very excited!!

With Mommy & Daddy on her BIG day!

Opening presents!! We had to help. But she loved them all! Wearing her "Miss March" shirt mommy made. Ready to eat cake or so we thought!
Happy Birthday to Presley
Not so interested. Poor thing! However, there are pictures of her eating a cupcake the next morning. I will send those out through kodakgallery.

PRESLEY'S 1st Birthday
Presley's 1st Birthday was a whirlwind. I blinked and the day was over. We had a busy Birthday week. Presley had her friends over for a dinner party on Wednesday and then her BIG 1st Birthday party on Saturday with family. Unfortunately, Presley was a little under the weather on her birthday. She was a trooper however, and loved seeing everyone.

I know all parents look forward to watching their child dive into their 1st Birthday cake. I was extremely excited about the event....however, to my surprise Presley wasn't interested in her cake at all. She actually became a little fussy. Poor thing. I think she had a minor cold on Saturday because it is now circulating throughout the family. If she felt the way I have been feeling these past couple of days I wouldn't want to eat a cake either. We did however give her a cup cake the next morning and she proudly ate it. Mommy's satisfied.......mission accomplished!!

Thanks to everyone who made Presley's 1st Birthday so special. Although she won't remember the day.....Wes and I will and we thank you! We love you all!

**Side Note**
There are so many pictures from her 1st birthday I wish I could post them all. I am in the process of uploading all the pictures to kodakgallery and will send them out shortly for all to enjoy!

Happy Birthday Bubbee!!

Watching Daddy play Basketball

Playing with her Easter Eggs

We had a wonderful Easter weekend!! This was Presley second Easter. Wes took the day off Friday and we spent the day together doing family things. This year Presley participated in dying Easter eggs....she only stayed interested the first 10 minutes. We went to church Saturday evening which was great because the weather was beautiful and she was able to wear her Easter dress. I ended up having to hem her dress because she hadn't quite grown into it yet....such a tiny thing. She was quite adorable. On Sunday we went over to my parents house and had a huge brunch and played all day while the boys watched basketball. Presley is now walking all over the place. She is quite good. However, if her foot happens to turn while walking then that would be the direction she is heading in even if she wants to go the other way. It is funny.

Enjoy!!!

Presley News!!

March so far has been a very busy month for Presley!! Below are a list of the highlights. I will try to post some pictures and video soon. Her Birthday is in less than two weeks. It is crazy to think that our little bit is about to turn 1! Wes and I are getting excited about her big day! Both my family and Wes's are planning to get together for a Birthday Party Cookout to celebrate!

Presley News:
1: She has 3 molars that have broken through which brings her tooth count to 11! She is working on her final molar which is currently causing some pain.

2: She is walking!!! It is absolutely adorable. She has been taking steps since the end of Feb. Now she will walk from one thing to the next and just this week she was brave enough to just walk for no reason at all. She typically was doing alot of her walking attempts when there was something insight she wanted.

3: March has been a bang up month for her. She has had her first black eye. More bruises shortly followed the black eye. She is so clumsy when she walks. Wes and I have to keep a really good eye on her. Her black eye actually happened in her crib. She was playing....of course and fell into her aquarium. Poor thing.

4: She loves sucking through a straw. Very talented.

5: She says "All Done" when she is finished eating. Wes and I love it!

6: She tries to brush her hair like mommy.

7: She is down to one nap. This was her choice......not mine. I wanted her to stay at two naps until about mid-summer. But Presley thought differently. Now she naps from about noon until 3:00 or 1 until 4:00.

Did you know:
That Presley will have celebrated two Easters before she is a year old. She celebrated her first Easter a week after she was born. Crazy!
