Her Royal Birthday Heiness!

Happy 1st Birthday Mary Patton!! We have had a great few days celebrating our little angel's very first birthday ever! Wednesday (the 21st) was her birthday, a beautiful day we spent playing outside and getting in some really good naps (at least she did), and then we all headed out for dinner with our beloved friends Hal and Charlotte. They brought her this adorable crown and bib, a precious stuffed bear, and a bag FULL of cute summer outfits! Could they BE any sweeter? :) The crown was fitting - we discovered Mary Patton shares her birthday with none other than the Queen of England! I'm thinking that explains the wave.... Her royal heiness had chicken for supper...
Pre-mess

How do I look??

A dainty eater? Not really, just pre-mess again.

Maybe a future doctor? Mary Patton checking out Dr. Owens's stethescope at her one-year well check! 19 lbs, 13 oz. Healthy girl! (This picture was pre-shots and pre-finger stick, although she was fine and smiling again before we left...)

Saturday we had Mary Patton's party!! Missing family so much, but so thankful to have loving friends with us to celebrate!

MP sampling her mega-cupcake!

She never had the "dig in" moment we hoped for. I don't think she likes having dirty hands. But she definitely enjoyed the icing!

Ready for the festivities!

Food Food Food!!
I'll get more pictures up soon - my friend Asher was snapping "party-in-progress" shots! Thanks to everyone who came and for all the wonderful gifts! Our little girl is so blessed to be surrounded by such tremendous love and so are we!
