Paige's 1 year polka dot party!

  Ben flew in to WA the night before Paige's birthday- there was no way we were celebrating without him! We spent the day playing on the lake, skyped with Ben's parents so Paige could show off her walking skills and say "hi" over and over, and then had some of the Warning side of the family come over for a little party.

Paige was lucky enough to have great-grandparents at the party

The party-goers

Paige was a very cute birthday girl. She liked opening presents, although didn't understand why we kept taking them from her, she wanted to just sit and play with the first one.

 She loved all the baby dolls she got, and now hugs, kisses, and carries them around.

Then on to the cake! Thank goodness I have a patient family to go along with my crazy demands in decorating help. And a huge thank you to Brandon for making Paige's adorable cake! Don't know what I would have done without his skills!

 At first she was hesitant, looking at us like, "are you really letting me eat this"?, but then she discovered there was cake underneath all that yummy frosting and really dove in. We eventually had to pull her away from it.

And then I realized why maybe red frosting and red velvet cake aren't the best idea with a 1 year-old.... Thank goodness for the outside shower.

After some fresh pajamas she was ready to play again.

We love our little girl so much and can't believe she is already 1!
