Happy Birthday Charlotte!

Holy cow...Charlotte is ONE today! I can't believe its been a year since the day my beautiful daughter was placed in my arms for the first time.

What a year it has been - laughs, tears, boo boos, uh-ohs, mama, dada, rolling, crawling, walking, standing, falling, climbing, and almost walking...but always with lots and lots of smiles. We have had so much fun!

(this morning with her birthday present!)

This morning Charlotte had her favorite breakfast, french toast bites and mandarin oranges and I think tonight will be one of her favorite meals... hot dogs, cheesy cauliflower, green beans, and mandarin oranges (again). She went to school today to celebrate with her friends and I will be taking mini cupcakes this afternoon for a little party. Mommy and Charlotte will be taking the day off tomorrow for some girl/birthday time, but also for her 12 month appointment! I'll update the stats after we get back!

This past weekend we celebrated her birthday with Mommy's Jackson side of the family -- the whole family! We had a family picnic at the Andrew Jackson state park, and had a mini celebration in the birthday girl's honor. Next week we will be heading to Sunset Beach with Daddy's family and having another celebration then!

This Saturday, we'll have some friends over to the house for some cupcakes and snacks. Atta girl... that's how you celebrate a birthday - stretch it out over a month!! I'll post some pictures and hopefully video from her upcoming celebrations in the next couple days... keep checking in!

Happy Birthday to our little pumpkin pie!
