 Happy Birthday Josie!

On the morning of her birthday, all the girls came in her room to play with her for a bit before we went downstairs.

 She loves her sisters!

 Here are her presents from us! Her 1st birthday party will be on Friday!! We will do cake and more presents then. :)

 Baby doll!

 She liked her Laugh and Learning house

 She got a cinnamon roll for her breakfast! Yum!! We sang to her and she was watching the candle intently.

 Jillian blew it out for her.

I then tried to take her 1 year pic. She kept pulling off her sticker.

 She finally left it alone when I gave her Pat the Bunny.

 The rest of the pictures are her 1st year portraits. :) She did such a great job posing for us!
