Happy Birthday Sadie!

Sadie turned one year old yesterday!  In the last month before her birthday she has become a pro at walking.  She likes to carry things around with her, especially things that resemble purses...

She is starting to keep hats on for more than a second at a time, she used to immediately pull them off and get cranky about it, but I was able to get a few shots...

We had Sadie's birthday party on Sunday the 5th so that her whole family could come.  She was so adorable in her birthday outfit!

This month she got a "real" tiara to wear for her picture, but like hats, she wasn't really digging it...

Dad ordered her cake for her, and it turned out really cute. 

With a quarter sheet purchase you get a free baby cake, which is intended that the baby can have that cake for themselves, but it was actually quite large, so Sadie just had a slice of the sheetcake.

She got lots of nice presents from everybody!  Lots of toys and clothes, and a few other things.  Here's some of the gifts she got...

She got her very first baby doll, Stella, from her Mama.

Her present from Dad and Grandpa Kox is a big hit too.

On her actual birthday yesterday, we took her to get her pictures taken at a studio.  She did really well, and we got some adorable shots.  She looks like a baby model in some of them!  Then we weren't able to do much else because it rained most of the day, but it was nice to be off work and be able to spend the whole day with her.  I can't believe how much she's grown up in the past year!
