Kallie Turns One!

As detailed in the previous post, our family celebrated Kallie's first birthday last Saturday (a week early because of good ole football) with a beautiful birthday brunch. Today was her actual birthday, so we did a few fun family things to mark this day with our sweet girl.

In the words of a famous singer..."She woke up like this!"
But seriously, Kallie started the day in our bed (where she sleeps every night!), then was up to see her big brothers before they headed off to school. They sang & talked to her, she laughed & smiled, then went back to sleep...in her crib (wow!). After she woke up again, the birthday girl had a little quality playtime with her parents before Daddy left for his football trip.
She LOVES the new push toy NeNe got her for her birthday. This child zooms around with this thing WAY too fast; but she stops to dance when the music starts on it! :)
After Daddy left, it was time for the obligatory monthly pics. This was the last set (sniff, sniff) since she's hit the 12 month mark...
Peek-a-boo Birthday Princess!
Then we got dressed & headed out for a quick shopping trip & girls' birthday lunch!
Clearly, Kallie enjoyed the sights of this chic Zaxby's...lol!! And, this child is an eater just like the rest of our Bunch. She can eat A WHOLE kid's meal! Sheesh!!
Lastly, the boys & I had a fun little dinner & dessert with Kallie to round out her birthday day! We read all of her birthday cards, sang "Happy Birthday", & let her blow out the candle on her pink cupcake. I think the boys were more excited about cupcakes & ice cream than Kallie!!
This girl sure can do some damage to cakes & cupcakes!
The boys had one last present for their little sis to open...
A Barbie!!
She loves playing with all of their little men (superheroes, ninja turtles, football men, etc.), so they thought she should have her own...Barbie style :)
Her face was PRICELESS!!!
HAPPY FIRST BIRTHDAY KALLIE LARKIN BOWENS!!!
WE LOVE YOU!!!
