House for sale

Presley is so excited, she is going to be a big sister.

She has always wanted to be a big sister and looks forward to

sharing all her toys with her new sibling.

Josh and I are also thrilled to be growing our family.

We would like to take this opportunity to give you, your

first glance at our little "bun in the oven".

Meet our Daughter:

Emerson MacKenzie

Little sister to Presley Morgan

Heiress to her 50+ pairs of shoes

Due 01/03/2011

The Big 5-0

What do you do when Grandpa turns 50?

Have a big party of course!

Then when the cake is cut

(with all of the black icing)

Mamma takes the opportunity

to smear a mustache on the little ones face.

Don't worry she thought is was funny

as did I.

Then she of course ate her cake.

Beach Beauty

Aunt Nora came for a visit.

So, we of course went to the beach.

This was the first time Presley has been since she has

mastered her walking.

She played in the sand very little.

She preferred to walk along the shore.

Occasionally, letting the waves crash against her

little legs.

I'm glad we had this time

and that I took lots of pictures

I worry about the future of our

gorgeous beaches.

First Birthday Photo Shoot

It was Fun

She's so Sweet

Life really is such a Treat!

A couple days after the party

We loaded up with leftover decorations,

cupcakes and a few outfits

And headed over to my favorite photographers house.

These are a few pictures from the fun.

(this really is jsut a sample)

Love to all!

And for my next trick.

This little girl must have ate her

Wheaties this morning.

After emptying her drawers,

and pulling books off the shelf.

she decided to climb on one of

her Birthday Presents.

She had a busy morning

then took a nap

and went to Gymboree for

Music and Play class.

New Discovery

After breakfast Presley plays for a bit......

This morning we heard noises coming from her room.

We recognized the noises

But, she has never been able to create them

So as any parent would do we snuck around the corner

to peak...

She has discovered to open her drawers and

decided to remove everything.

A few of my favorite things...

From the party.

Her cake

I just loved her cupcakes

I had each one made to look like a flower

or a bouquet of flowers.

loved them

The after picture

still somewhat presentable from the front

One of the many giant pinwheels I made

and had placed all around the yard

The flowers arrangements

mini carnations and a mini pinwheel.

And finally

The Presley

and

Is One

banners that I made.

Mission accomplished....
