We went to Birmingham last weekend to celebrate Caden's first birthday!! We had so much fun seeing all our family and friends. It had been too long since we'd been back for a visit. Lea spoiled all of us, especially Presley. Presley ate pretty much the entire time we were there. Her G had stocked the pantry and refrigerator with all her favorite foods and she wasn't leaving till they were all gone! It was ridiculous how much our little girl packed in her belly every day. It took about 1 day for Presley to find the pantry. She would grab G's hand when she was hungry and walk her to the pantry for a snack. G was so good and would let her pick out what she wanted from the pantry...Needless to say, we all had a great time! Lea and David spoiled me by washing Presley's bottles every day!! It was WONDERFUL! Wish we were still there!!
This is popsicle #1 of 10 (in 5 days!)
Caden's first popsicle!
Lea bought Presley this Elmo she found at Toys R Us one day while we were shopping. It was the first time going somewhere where Presley was begging for every toy... I have a feeling this will only get worse with her age.

The Birthday Boy!!
Caden had a bug-themed party. It was TOO cute. Charelette did an amazing job with all the decorations and video of pictures from his first year. Poor Uncle Craig was sick most of Caden's party and the weekend, but at least there is lots of video for him to watch. We are just thankful he's finally feeling better!!!
When it was time to open gifts, you would have thought it was Presley's party. She got up there, front and center to see what Caden was opening.

Aunt Rere made Presley two tutus!! They are adorable and Presley now LOVES to play dress up. She put on both tutus and her bumblebee wings (from Caden's party) the next morning over her pj's. I'm so glad my mom saved all my old dance costumes and dress-up clothes. I think she'll be in them before we know it.
We miss you all so much!! Thanks for a great visit and all that you did to make it easier to travel with a baby. It really was such a easy trip for us. Can't wait to see you again in just a few weeks!!

Piggy-Poo! I miss you so much. Everytime I see your popsicles in the freezer I smile. You are so smart! You knew immediately where the food was and who to ask. And, for the record, your G will always have food. :)
I will come visit soon. I love hearing "Hi, G".
Love all three
Oh my gosh! We're in the "dress up" phase too! So much fun! We need to get the girls together and let them run around in their tutus and princess dresses!
