A is going to be one!!
So tomorrow is her bday!!
 I just can't believe how quick that came. We got the pictures taken today... we went to picture innovations which was recommended by someone on a previous thread. They came out very well and were less expensive than the other places we have been. One more thing: If there is any bday gift you think she just has to have, I can have dh get it when he goes early to pick up a battery for the video camera, so let me know quickly!! Thanks everyone... I just had to share! Last edited by oceanica : 08-01-2009 at 07:05 PM.

Tyler LOVES his wagon, but I bet with two you already have one. If you don't...this one rocks, I love the canopy on sunny days!
Radio Flyer Ultimate Family Wagon : Target We love the cup holders and ours also has a storage thing that attaches to the back, which is great for other supplies and what not. Have a great day. She looks really tall sitting next to Kee

aww, thanks so much everyone!!
Quesita that was really precious. (I printed it for her to put with her cards and stuff.) Aclee, we just got a wagon for her bday! Similar to the one you have. DH has been hot to get that for months. The only problem I see is that the seatbelt is just a thin little one across her abdomen... She could be out of that in a second, but hopefully she'll be having so much fun riding in the wagon she won't try to crawl out! Steph, thanks... we just had a little party at home because she already had two good sized ones when we were visiting family. (Besides I don't have that "party planning/carrying off a party" gene that you have!!) I do hope I can get all the frosting out of her hair!  Last edited by oceanica : 07-13-2009 at 06:42 PM.

Happy Birthday A! She's such a cutie! It's amazing how fast they grow up.
My son is almost one and he loves his toy vacuum. Maybe his fascination for cleaning will continue as he gets older! A mother can only hope!
