Lillyan's First Birthday parties

Lillyan's first, first birthday party was with my family in Washington.  My sister had her son, Connor, five days before we had Lilly... so we celebrated their birthday's together.  I am so sad that I did not get any pictures of him at this party, but Suzanne got some great ones!  So go see her blog to see how sweet, cute and different he is than our little Lilly girl.  I have video with him in it, but my computer and I have been fighting with each other and the computer has won.  I WILL figure out the video upload... just not tonight!
Sweet Lilly was so tired.  She feel asleep shortly after this picture was taken.  She was so tired she wasn't interested in eating any cupcake!  She did have a few bites of the ice cream Red Robin gave her and Connor!
Us and Red Robin.  She really liked him!
I wasn't very quick with my camera, so I had these girls pretend to sing to them again so I could get a picture... they were good sports about it!  But Connor and Lilly both just stared at them when they came to sing Happy Birthday!
My sweet friend Nat and the birthday girl.
Mom and Dad at the birthday party!  HEY!  There's Connor in the back ground!  I DID get a picture of the birthday boy!  Isn't he a doll?  SO SWEET! (Yes Malcolm... we see you!I don't know who's being so hands-y...ha, ha, ha!  get it?  HANDS-y!  Malcolm????)
Okay... this is the three trash bags full and one medium sized box full of loot Lilly got at her Birthday party in Amarillo!  It has been hard trying to figure out where to put all of her toys, but what a blessing to have so many new toys for our girl!  We have decided to put some away and this summer we will get them out and she will be thrilled!
Okay, you have to look at the picture below this one first and then look at this one!  They posted in the reverse order I wanted them to post!
She pulled out the toy phone and it went STRAIGHT to her ear and she said, "Hi!"  in that sweet little voice of hers.  Everybody cracked up laughing!  She's a true girl, already talking on the phone, carrying a purse and wanting to get her hair done!
Never, NEVER, in my wildest dreams did I think so many people would come to a 1 year old's Birthday party!  You can only see half of the people in this picture!  It was packed!  We are so blessed to have such wonderful family... blood relation and Church!  Thank you for loving our Lilly girl!!!!!!!
She started out opening presents in this chair... it didn't take too long for her to find her Daddy's lap though!  She kept wondering why everyone was staring at her and laughing.  But she was the hit of the party, that's for sure!!!
She didn't want to try it, but after Grandma and Daddy helped her get into it, she LOVED it!  YAY for cupcakes!
Lilly in her party dress, playing shy for the camera!  What a handsome Daddy she has!
Auntie Dani helped me and Pamitty-Pam decorate!  It was a cupcake theme!
Pamitty-Pam's dinning room all festive and cupcaked out!
Pink and brown cupcakes.... YUMMY!

I told Luke the other day that I am not going to blink anymore!  I refuse to do it!!  She has grown so quickly, and in a blink of an eye... my baby is 1!  We love her so much and we are so blessed by her and proud of her.

Christmas pictures are to come soon!  Love you guys!
