HAPPY 1ST BIRTHDAY, LILLIANNA MAE!!!

Our little girl one year ago today


The big birthday girl
Has it really been an entire year since Miss Lily was born??? It has gone by so fast...way too fast. It seems it was just yesterday that she arrived and we learned we were the proud parents of a beautiful baby girl. She is absolutely the love of our lives and we thank God every day for our amazing little miracle. WE LOVE YOU LILLIANNA!

Last weekend we had a birthday party with Grandma and Grandpa Lamolli, Great-Grandma Chapin, Uncle Ryan and from Oregon via webcam: Grandma and Grandpa Archibald, Aunt Cathy, Aunt Chris, Aunt Cheri (Auntie Cher) and Cousins Kellen, Cody and McKenzie! It was so special to have everyone be a part of Lily's special day. She modeled her special birthday outfit, made just for her with her name embroidered on it - then opened a couple of her birthday gifts - and then had her very own little birthday cake! After her cake, a bath was required as she had frosting not only on her face, but on her arms, legs and tummy! What a fun and busy day she had.

The table is set

The cake is ready

Even a little cake especially for Lillianna

I'm ready for my party!!

Mmmmm...is that little cake just for ME???

Let's see...how should I eat this...

I know - when all else fails, eat it face first - no hands!


I can feel the sugar rush already!

Yay - it's time for presents!!

Thank you everyone for sharing Lillianna's big day. She sends hugs and kisses to everyone - and will post again to show you all the fun new toys she got. Mommy and Daddy need to buy stock in batteries. And one more time, just because we love her so much...

HAPPY FIRST BIRTHDAY LILLIANNA MAE ARCHIBALD
