Julianna is One!

We hosted family for Julianna's birthday party on Saturday.  I cannot believe our (likely last) baby is one already.  It is certainly bittersweet.  On the one hand, we'll probably never have a tiny little squishy baby again and on the other, she is becoming more fun and filled with toddlery mischief every day.  I absolutely love the time between one and two!

The party was really awesome.  Our friend Jaime was in town and we had a lot of fun with her over the weekend.  Plus, she helped a ton with the party - couldn't have done it without her.  It being so soon after Christmas, and just having gotten back from vacation a few days before, I did not go crazy with a theme and hard core decorations.  We straightened up the house and hung up some pretty tissue pom poms and that's about it.

The kids alternated between playing in the basement and watching Cars 2 in the family room, and the adults mostly stayed upstairs, ate and chatted.  There may have been some fawning over Jules and her super cute birthday outfit.  She was in a fantasticly happy and silly mood all day.

It was a simple celebration in this time of crazy Pinterest-inspired overproduced events but it could not have been a more special way to celebrate our little beauty..

Photos to come shortly...
