I seriously cannot believe that Hannah turned one today. It just does not seem probable that she has been here for a whole year! Hannah was such a surprise to us, but our family is so complete with her. Her sweet smile and precious temperment make every single day with her a blessing.
The morning started out with singing Happy Birthday. Emma wanted to keep singing and did a great job singing to her little sister. She knew all of the words and would even tell us that Hannah was one and she was two!
Hannah is so happy every day that it was just another typical day for Hannah. To us, we could not believe that she was one. We had a simple family party for her at our house. The cake matched the invitation with a cupcake, pink and green circles and one candle. She wore the same Strasburg birthday dress that Emma loved, because I really could not find anything more sweeter than that dress. Hannah played all morning, Bo's parents came into town and then we had a party at 2:00 with some simple food, cake and ice cream. Hannah's big present from us was the Sweetheart Playhouse for our deck. It is so cute, but she could not play in it because it did rain today. I think her and Emma will enjoy it this fall.
My mom and dad gave her a new rocking chair to match her bedroom and a little riding toy car. My sister and brother in law gave her a pearl bracelet. Bo's parents gave her the Little People Nativity Scene to play with at Christmas time, an Elmo movie, cute outfit/bib and some money. She got some cute clothes, lots of DVD's, a ball popping little toy and her favorite thing of all was the singing Barney. Hannah LOVES Barney! So, she would not put the Barney down for the rest of the party.
Hannah was wonderful the whole party even though she was fighting a little cold. She was still as happy as ever. We all helped her blow out her candles and she loved eating her cake. It was a perfect family party with just the right people to celebrate with us. I was so glad to have the day off with her and to celebrate on her real birthday. We love you so much Hannah - more than you will ever imagine. Happy First Birthday sweetie pie!
