So on Lexi's b-day, I was working, so we planned her "big" celebration on Sunday...Mother's day. The week before Lexi's birthday, I really struggled....mostly because Lexi has gone from being a super cuddly, snuggly baby to walking and being a bit more independent. I struggled so much one night I looked at Derek and burst into tears because I missed my "snuggly baby". So it was almost "karmatic" (is that a word???) that the day we planned to celebrate Lexi's first birthday, she was sick. Some Mom's may understand when I say that it sucks when your kid is sick, but I LOVED that she was snuggly and cuddly because of it. The good news is that it was a one day bug....but my vision of her first birthday certainly went different than this....
The day can be summed up by saying "the best of plans....."
Here is probably the best picture of the day....excited to open her presents!
Her balloon from Grandma...(which almost 2 months later is still floating on our ceiling)
A Mommy and Daughter pic...showing off Mommy's new glasses.
A few more presents...
And let the fussiness begin...
So we tried to cheer her up with a tiara.....(I don't blame you Lexi, I am not a tiara fan either!)
