Finally Birthday Pictures!!! My friend Elizabeth Dennis took pictures. (Just as a side note she is starting her own photography "business" called "Agape Photography" She does very well and if you need info, just leave me a note and I will give you a way to contact her to get her prices.)
Well I wanted to add some of my crafty styles to the decor of Katelynn's party...so here are a few of my attmepts to be a crafty mommy.
Castle made out of a Kleneex box and papertowel holders. Thanks to Family Fun Magazine for the idea. (at least I think that's where I got it! LOL)
A new spin on a guest book...Thanks to Creating Keepsakes Magazine
My own creation!

Sharing Cake with a friend
A Book and Jumper from Great Grandma Hilligoss.
(She Loves this book..."How do I love you")
We had a bit of a meltdown during presents...I had to kind of talk to her in the "wonderful Mommy stern voice" then I turned to get another gift for her...when I turned back around she had covered her eyes like she was embarassed! It was to cute. (I did feel a little bad for embarrasing her...but can't have my little girl trying to swipe at her cousin just because he got a little close to her...even if she is the birthday girl.)
More gifts!
Special time with Uncle "B"
Helping my niece Maddie draw a note for Katelynn's scrapbook

Happy Birthday baby girl.....I know this post is about a month and a half late...so by know your almost 14 months. I really doesn't seem possible...this time last year I was just getting ready to go back to work and dreading every bit of it. You were so tiny...all legs and arms. Now your such a big girl...with thick chubby legs and strong arms. You love climbing on anything and walking on your own everywhere. I still think my favorite time of day is when I am rocking you to sleep. You are so precious as I watch your eyes drift shut and can feel your little body just totaly relax against me. I can't help by feel so blessed in my heart that you are truly mine! I have dreamed about you for so many years...but never did I expect my heart to be filled with this much love! I mean I know I would love my child...but unless your a parent that has held your sleeping child you can't quite put it into words! Seeing you waddle around our living room, hearing your slap happy giggle about 8:30 everynight when it's getting close to bed time, warms my heart in a way I can't began to explain. And all those open mouth slobbery kisses, snuggles into my neck and pats on my back from you tiny hand I wouldn't trade for anything in this world. It may sound cliche but I think God truly spent a little more time creating you!
