Birthday Girl

This mischievous grin says it all!!! Julia knew that the day was all about her and she loved the attention. Anyone who knows me knows that I have been planning the details of her first birthday for months. The dress had to me custom made , the cake ordered to match her dress, invitations, decorations etc. I was so happy with how the day turned out, I wish she could stay little forever though. At her doctor appointment she was 17 pounds 3 ounces and 28 inches long. I think she will be our baby for a little bit longer!
This baby doll from Pam and Jonathan was a hit. She was loving and kissing it all evening. It is amazing to see a little girl act that way so naturally. She has such a sweet, gentle nature and we love her so much.


Here is the cake that I've been so excited about. It was a great ending to the party!

Cute dress and cake! Did you make them yourself? She's so tiny, it's so cute! Happy Birthday!

I ordered the dress online at B Swanky and the cake from a local bakery. I wish I had the skill to make them though.

Someone looks like a little piggy - just like her mama :)
