Taylor & Madeline's 1st Birthday Party!

Thank you to all of our friends and family who came to celebrate Taylor and Madeline's 1st birthday with us. The party went well and we enjoyed seeing everyone. Here are some pics of the fun day and some of Sunday of the girls playing with all their new toys. I am sure there will be more pics to come as people send me theirs, but here are some we managed to take amongst the craziness!! The girls super cute attire was courtesy of our friend Erin who not only made their great M & T shirts but also made the fabulous tu-tu's! She is very crafty! Erin really was the party planner, since it was tax busy season. We couldn't have pulled it off without her! A special thank you to Stan's sister Becca for flying in the celebrate with us, you were a huge help and the girls miss you already! Daddy and Miss Madeline.

The cakes were delicious thanks to Square Rabbit!

The girls were perfectly still and quiet through the Happy Birthday song, they kind of seemed shocked since every one was standing and staring at them. Taylor digging in...

Madeline was very dainty at first...

Here are some picture of Sunday. Taylor will hug, kiss and snuggle with the glow worm like it is her baby. This was very cute and ironic to me since she doesn't like any other stuffed animals or dolls, but I guess the light up face got her. It was adorable.

Taylor giving me a look for interrupting her playing... see the long bangs, hence why we usually pull it up.

Here is Taylor's favorite position to sit in. She always has that leg tucked back so she can quickly crawl at a moments notice. She is usually on the move.

I finally caught Madeline's excited bounce on camera. She bounces up and down with her knee tucked under and the other foot out. It is pretty funny. Madeline has also started stacking rings and blocks, which is hard to catch on camera.

Madeline's favorite toy had to be the ball popper, which she figured out how to work very quickly, and if she got tired of them popping out she reaches over and grabs them out :) As Becca found out the ball popper toy is also very loud in the morning. :)

Snack time in the playroom, we are working on keeping our Cheerios in the cups, doesn't always work well, but we try...

Once again Mom interrupting playtime

I also finally got a picture of Taylor sticking her bottom lip out, makes me laugh...

It was a great b-day party weekend and gosh we are TIRED!!!
