Our sweet Madeline Kathleen turns one today!
She loved being sung to!
Checking out the cupcake
Showing us all how pretty it is!
Eating it like a lady!
I promised myself (and Clay) after Jack's 1st bday party that I would never do that again with another one year old. It was too much stress, chaos and work for a child who didn't even know what was happening. I kept true to my promise. I will save the big blowouts, princess parties, pink everything parties for when she will know and appreciate my hard work. For this year, we had a great dinner with the Smiths and celebrated with cupcakes. I just hope in the years to come, Madeline will still love me even though she got Funfetti and Jack got fondant. She seemed to enjoy hers just as much, even though she was alot cleaner with it. We love, love, love you Madgirl and have been so blessed to have your sweet spirit in our family this year. We cannot wait to see what Year 2 holds- maybe even some hair!

Happy birthday Madeline!! She looks beautiful Jennie...and the "party" looks perfect! I learned the over-the-top lesson for bday #1 (and Christmas) too! :) It's just so much fun to go all out. Your kiddos are so blessed to have such a creative & caring Momma!
oops - and Daddy too!!! (Sorry Clay!)
