Birthday Party and Cake Smashing

Em had a BIG day yesterday. It all began with a cake smashing photo session at 10am and ended with a birthday celebration with family. She was a trooper and stayed awake and in a good mood until 10:30pm...then she happily gave in to the sleep fairies :)
Our friend took Em's last photos of her 1st year series. Em was not too afraid of getting a bit dirty! It was a lot of fun!!! Thanks Karin for doing such a great job capturing Em grow during her first year!!!! We are soooooo thankful that we had this opportunity!
Karin has her pictures posted on her website.
click on the client link and then type in the passwords EmmaCake1 for the first gallery and EmmaCake2 for the second gallery. Her pictures were much better than mine---obviously :)
Thinking about it...
Mmmm....squishy!
I think I need to get into a better cake smashing position :)
Messy girl!
Drawing with chocolate.
Karin had set up this vinyl backdrop on our driveway for the big event.
T and I trying to decide what to do next. Em ended up getting wrapped in a big towel, then put into the tub...baby, bloomers and diaper all got dunked.
Em got to celebrate her birthday with family that evening. She LOVED having all the attention on her!!! She was quite the ham!
Not willing to wear the hat. I held it on for a picture and then the yanked it off.
T and I with our birthday girl. Mia enjoyed watching Em eat her birthday cupcake as well.
Em getting reading to open her gifts.
Mia was teaching Em how to play with the Legos. Mia had decided that it was her responsibility to try everything out and then teach Em how to use it. Very cute!!!
My parents had gotten Emma a basketball goal. I think T was more excited about it then Emma was, but I know that they will have A LOT of fun over the next couple of years shootin' some hoops!!!


Thanks to all who came over to celebrate with us!!! We feel blessed to have our family near!
