Hoot Hoot Hooray! Lola May's 1st Birthday!!

It's hard to believe that Lola turned the big #1!!  She is one cute little stinker and we are so glad that she is in our family!  We had a little celebration on her big day with Nana, Aunt Laurie (they both happened to be in town on spring break) and of course the Wright's.  It was a fun little get together.

We went with an owl theme-I just love owls :)  Plus, she is only one and doesn't really care.  Next year she will probably be in love with some cartoon character, have a favorite princess or toy so I decided to take the cake on this one :)

*Owl Cake* 
I was quite impressed by my abilities here, didn't think it was going to turn out, but surprisingly enough, it did :)

 Getting ready for the par-tay

Lola loves to look out our glass door so when she had visitors 
come up to see her, she was thrilled! :)

The #1 on the cake is about all Lola really cared for.  She is a funny little thing.  Not too daring to try new things and if she doesn't like how it feels (texture wise) she WILL NOT touch it.


Yep-that's about all she could handle here folks :)  Smash cake? No thank you!

 Look of fear on her face :)  It may have been the big "googly" eyes or something.  It was pretty funny

Don't worry, Big Sister arrived to convince Lola to try it.  Nope.  Not even.

Lola liked her presents!  Of course all the other littles helped her open them up :)



Now why Lola didn't want to eat this, I'm not sure ;)


Happy-Sweet-Fun-Loves to laugh-that's our Lola Babes





These pictures were priceless...she REALLY did not want anything to do with her cake.  It was funny to watch her facial expressions and body language

Seriously guys, I am NOT going to touch it!


It was a successful #1 (minus the smash cake)! ;)  I told Brian I was a little sad that she didn't want to just dive right into it, then Brian said "Lacy, is that her personality at all?"  Nope.  Not at all.  What did I expect?   Maybe if it didn't have those eyes... :)

Lola had a blast hanging out with her pals and she got lots of fun presents that she enjoys playing with.  She has the cutest belly laugh and loves to show off her 8 teeth!  Yes 8!!  The other day I had a lady ask me if Lola was "this happy all of the time?"  The answer is yes, yes she is (unless she is tired or hungry) other than that,  you will most likely get one big toothy grin out of her!

The morning after the big day playing with her new toys...

Love this girls "bed head" :)




One year stats to come...
