I can't believe my little girl is now 1! This year has gone by incredibly fast and we are having so much fun with her and her cute personality. Here are her current stats:
Height - 30 inches (75th percentile)
Weight - 17.5 lbs (5th percentile)
Long, skinny, and still growing! Most everyone was busy on her actual birthday, so we had her party on Monday night at Nevoles where Josh's brothers work. These pictures don't do justice to how cute she looked in her little party dress. (I have to admit I really enjoy dressing her up.) Here's Brooklyn w/ Dad:

Brooklyn w/ my parents: 
On Brayden's 1st birthday we gave him his first taste of chocolate by making him a chocolate cake. We quickly found out he doesn't like chocolate so he wouldn't eat it. We didn't want to take the chance with Brooklyn so I stayed safe and got her a strawberry cake to share with Brayden. I did, however, get everyone else a yummy chocolate caramel ice cream cake. 
Brooklyn devoured her cake.
Thanks Jake for cleaning up! This is why we didn't go to our house!
It was so funny to see all the cameras out while Brooklyn was eating her cake. I couldn't resist taking a picture of them taking pictures.
Brooklyn wasn't a fan of getting cleaned up, obviously.

Presents! Here's grandpa helping Brooklyn open her new shape sorter:
I don't know who was more excited for the doll and stroller, me or Brooklyn. I'm so excited to start playing with girly stuff, rather than balls all day long. Thanks mom for the fun gift! Brooklyn absolutely loves it!
Of course Brayden had to get in on the action:
Brooklyn was worn out by the end of her party.
We love you so much Brooklyn! We are blessed to have you in our family and we love your sweet personality and joy you bring us all. We hope you had a wonderful birthday!

Cute pictures, Shantelle. And I love your hair so much!
The shape sorter that is in one of the pictures is a product that my husband's company sells to Wal-Mart. They sell all kinds of toys to Wal-Mart including the Garanimals line. I recognized that little shape sorter instantly and had to smile b/c probably 1/8th of a penny might go to us from that purchase! lol!
Thanks for your comments on my blog. You're great! Wish we lived closer. Love ya.
Oh what a cutie! And I can't believe she only weighs 17.5 pounds... can I just say Makade is only 5 months and is a chunky 16 pounds! Boys are always bigger though.. right?!? Anywho, happy 1st to your baby girl!
She is so stinkin cute! I LOVE that little dress!!
Loved reading about Brooklyn's birthday party. They are growing up so fast! A few more years and we can start taking them to gymnastics meets and dance performances. :) Brooklyn is adorable!
