First Birthday!!

Livi and Dad enjoying some awesome Birthday ice cream!




Of course the Birthday girl got her very favorite food for dinner on her birthday! Pizza!!












I can't believe my little Livi is a whole year old! She has changed my life in so many ways. All for the better. I am a whole lot less selfish, more patient, kind and loving. There are no words that can describe how much I love that little girl. She is the perfect baby and I couldn't ask for more! I'm so excited to be having another sweet baby join our family. Liv is going to be the best big sister. She already knows where the baby is. I ask her where the baby is and she lifts up my shirt and pets my belly. She even gives it kisses. It is pretty cute. She is running around the house like crazy! Just this past week she has decided she really wants to walk and is doing such a good job! I can tell she is learning so much. She is beginning to really know what words mean. She is precious! We had a fun Ladybug birthday party for her! We had it the day before her actual birthday so that more people would be able to make it. On the day of her party Grandma and Grandpa Rowland drove down from Idaho just to see and spend time with the birthday girl. It was so sweet of them and we loved seeing them and going to lunch. We have the best family! Lots of family and friends showed up to support little Liv and her turning one. Thank you everyone who came and helped make Alivia's birthday so special!

How fun! Wish we could have come, but I'm pretty sure "the team" would have crashed the party!

What a little sweetheart! She is such a cutie.
Congrats on Baby #2! That is so exciting.
I just sent you another invite to our blog. I thought I remembered you saying you couldn't login. A bunch of people weren't able to get into our blog for some reason. Let me know if it still isn't working. :)
