At the end of May Lizzie turned 1! She is so much fun! She says mama, dada, brother (not sure how to spell it the way she says it), mo (more), and her favorite at the moment...uh-oh. She is really a lot of fun. She is friendly and gives out smiles to anyone who smiles or talks to her. She is a little girl who knows her mind, if she wants something there is no distracting her, she will get it. This is a great adult characteristic not so much a great toddler characteristic from mom's point of view. She love her mom and gets so excited when her dad gets home that she totally forgets about mom. She adores her big brother and asks for him the moment she wakes up. She is a climber and a walker.
We love this little girl!

I bought cupcakes since, her party was planned for Saturday. So yummy! |
 |
Patrick switched his call so he could be there for cupcakes. |
 |
Lizzie, enjoyed every bite! |
 |
Our friends joined us. |
 |
Kisses for mom! |
Grandma, Granddad, Aunt Laura and Uncle Randy were able to come for the weekend to celebrate with us. Granddad and Grandma even helped paint our playroom, gone are my mosaics from trying to decided which color to choose, Patrick was pleased even if he was too tired to show it as he was on call all weekend.
 |
Grandma time! |
 |
Yummy Food! |
 |
We were so lucky to have Patrick for a few hour, we waited to have the party until he could get home. |
 |
This girl loves watermelon! |
 |
Waiting for Patrick meant that the party was right during nap time. |
 |
A little juice... |
 |
...a promise of cake... |
 |
and Lizzie was ready for a little more fun! |
 |
These three girls are our best friends. We do a lot with them. Andy has recently decided to marry Belle, she had to do some convincing to get him to decide that it wasn't gross even if she was his friend;). |
 |
Andy and I made Lizzie a pinata. |
 |
Lizzie enjoyed it even if it was a ladybug with a neck-brace. |
 |
Gathering pinata treats... |
 |
...and a few more treats. |
Present time!
 |
So this picture does not do justice to how wet Lizzie was after Andy turned the hose on everyone while filling up the pool. All the adults dove for cover leaving Lizzie to fend for her self. I think she enjoyed it. |
Lizzie love all of her generous gifts. Thank YOU!
Since my Dad's only wish was to go to the beach, and he was well deserving of it after painting all Friday, we cleaned up the party we went to the beach. Lizzie loves the water just like Andy. I don't know how I gave birth to two fish especially since I am a land lover, but I did.

I laugh every time I see this picture. They were watching one of the amusement rides near the boat ride. |

This little guy loves anything that "drives". |
