Brooklyn's Birhtday

Brooklyn is ONE! I seriously can't believe that it has been a year! March 16, 2009 was one of the best days of our lives. This year has been amazing! Though it has been hard at times, I would not trade this little girl for anything! We love her so much. We honestly probably tell her we love her at least a hundred times a day. And every time we get the biggest grin. I can't express how grateful I am to be Brooklyn's mom.

We had so much fun on her birthday. Casey and I decorated her room and just played with her all day. She loved having Casey home and all she wanted to do was wrestle and get chased by him. It was a nice day so Brooklyn and I and went for a walk outside while Case went to the store to the get stuff to make her birthday cake. Which by the way he did amazing! I was a little nervous at first, and especially nervous when the cake broke into a million pieces! But somehow he made it look so cute! The reason Casey made the cake was because it was a tradition in his family that his dad made all the cakes and so he wanted to carry on the tradition.

After he finished the cake we headed over to his parents house for her birthday party. Both our families and our Grandparents came. It was a princess themed party so everyone had on a princess crown including all the boys! :D B got some of the cutest clothes ever! Casey was mad at me for buying so many especially after all the ones she got but I can't help it! I seriously have a problem. I told Casey to take my wallet away because I can't stop buying stuff for her! Her favorite present was her "baby" doll. She was trying to pull it out of the box and was getting so mad that I couldn't get those stupid twisting things off it fast enough. She carries it everywhere and say Be-Be. And she will randomly stop to give it kisses.

She loved her cake as you will see in the pictures. The minute we put it in front of her she put her finger in to get some frosting. She was loving playing in it till her hands were covered. She was shaking her hands and getting cake everywhere in an attempt to get them clean. I knew once her hands were "dirty" she would be done. If she gets any tiny bit of anything on them she whimpers and holds her hands out to be cleaned. So after shaking cake everywhere we turned her back towards her cake but she was done so she stood up and turned to Casey and stepped in a huge piece, she HATED it. She lifted her legs up and was sitting in this pike position and wouldn't put them down. This girl has some serious stomach muscles! And of course she loved her bath to get all clean.

Happy Birthday to our little Brooklyn Monster!! Enjoy the pictures
