Sweet As Sugar

Sadie put on her Saturday best and hosted a fun group for her 1st birthday party. Lots of grandparents, aunts and friends. It was hysterical to watch Sadie and her future-besties Lilah and Emma in all their one year old glory.

Cake time! To appease Dad's sweet tooth we had the mandatory DQ ice cream cake - but to make the birthday treat a little easier for tiny fingers I scoured the stores for the perfect cupcake. Looks like it was well worth it!

Like any diva who's studied up on My Super Sweet Sixteen, there was a mid-party outfit change. But unlike the brats on the show, it was out of necessity to get rid of the frosting mess. And then on to presents! Aiden assisted by swiftly unpackaging the boxed up baby doll. How helpful!

Super cute outfits, books, musical instruments, funky blocks, and ta-da...the Escalade of Radio Flyer wagons! Equipped with all the bells and whistles. The girls piled in, anticipating a ride!

I also asked all family members and Sadie's God parents to write a note to her and seal it in an envelope, which she'll open on her 18th birthday. They happily obliged. I just want her to know how much she's been loved from the moment she arrived and that we have amazing dreams for the person she'll become.
