It’s hard to believe that one year ago (almost right now) I started to go into labor. We had attended a birthday party that morning and then came home and had naps (yes, me too!) then Tim got ready to go to a Men’s night at church. I remember he asked if he should go or not (at this point I was 3 days past due) and I said, “go ahead. I’m sure I’ll be fine.” Well, a couple hours later I called him up and said he needed to come home… 😉
We had a delightful time celebrating Maddie’s Birthday yesterday. There was food, fun, laughter, balloons, gifts, a funny looking beehive cake and a delightfully happy one year old.
We went with a “Bee” theme. It was so much fun to try and think of creative ways to use yellow and black. Chloe and I had a fun time crafting things–she’s getting to be such a great helper now that she’s older!
Her awesome sign!
Entryway decorations. Chloe helped color all of the honey jars in the garland.
Our “Bee” themed selection of items!
Tim even managed to find her the most adorable yellow/black/white outfit for her big day. Isn’t she cute?
And of course, there was fun and laughter while opening the gifts. She was delighted by unwrapping the gifts and taking out the tissue paper–it was absolutely adorable and hilarious. She would pull the tissue paper out of the bag and giggle uncontrollably. I wish I had taken a video of it. I can’t remember another one year old having so much fun unwrapping the stuff as she did!
CUTE! I hope Tim wasn’t afraid to attend the party since he is afraid of bees..haha!
Actually… if you can believe it, it was HIS idea! 🙂
