She's ONE!!



Adeline's First Birthday party was a blast! We invited a few friends over to help celebrate but not to many so as not to over whelm Addy with all the commotion.







Momma and the birthday girl! Fran and I made this birthday tutu for Addy.








This is Addy's cheesey camera face, not sure where she got it but it's so darn CUTE!







Opening presents.





Addy's first taste of cake or sugar. Mommy made a very yummy grain free chocolate cupcake.



Not sure she liked it :(








All her pals.

Because Addy's nickname is buggy we thought it would fun to make egg carton bugs for a craft, here are all the kids showing there 'bugs'.



PENSACOLA THANKSGIVING

Thanksgiving at the Stonghold this year was great, Patrick and Francesca came all the way up from Ave Maria to be with us!!! Addy very much enjoyed having uncle and auntie around to play with and Brian and I were so pleased to have family in town. We showed them around base and spent one evening at the beach as well as the Thanksgiving festivities.  We didn't get to many pictures but I'll share the ones we did get.

Our delicious turkey the day after Thanksgiving(spent TD at a friends house so we made a 'family' turkey the next day).

Our lovely guest.

Adeline's favorite part about Thanksgiving, the turkey leg! Look how huge it is!!!

MY favorite part about Thanksgiving, the delicious apple pie Fran made! We fought over this pie the morning after :)

Hanging out at the beach.

Sisters. Miss you, Fran!

She just wants to be a momma!

 Little girls are the best! Seriously, they just want to be little mommas! I found this child's play "moby wrap" for a quarter at a consignment store sale. Gianna loves it! She is so proud of herself whenever I put it on. She bounces her baby and makes sure that she goes "nigh night". Kids are way too much fun.

 My good friend Anna spent the night recently and the kids had a blast. Here they were excited to watch morning cartoons! Love my little Peter!
