Bryleigh's turning ONE!

Sarah and I met for coffee routinely to chat about pregnancy since we were both due in May. She was due one week after I was. The day of my due date I get a text that Sarah's in labor! I was SO jealous and happy at the same time! As soon as little miss Bryleigh was born, I was up at the hospital holding her in my arms. I remember her starting to cry, but I calmed her down (this was a never in my history with holding babies haha). I can't believe it was almost a year ago!

Now we meet for playdates errands and let the girls baby talk while we chat about being a new mom. Sarah has done a great job and I love texting to get her opinion on things going on with Kins. I hope the girls can be friends for a long time!

Bryleigh is such a girly girl. She likes to play with shoes, makeup, and jewelry. She definitely knows what she wants and she always has a smile on. She is their first baby and she is definitely a godsend. For her birthday, Sarah has asked for donations to help a baby cottage in Africa! They are the most giving people I know and they have a passion for children. If you would like to read more or donate in honor of miss Bryleigh head on over to Sarah's Blog!

Love the hat?! Her momma made it!

She was SO not into smashing the cake haha! This princess is not into getting dirty. But just in case, we had an adorable bubble bath set up! So cute!

Stay tuned for pics of her bunny birthday next month!

Ansley's ONE.. part 1

Lauren and I were pregnant at the same time last year. I was stalking her facebook continuously for updates on if she had contractions, if she posted the name, if she was going to be induced, etc, etc. Miss Ansley came early just before Easter last year. I was SO excited for Lauren and thought maybe if I could just get near her (even in cyberspace) the early contractions would rub off on me too haha. (No such luck). I saw lauren post the first pic of Ansley in her carrier matching her beautiful momma kneeling at their doorstep. She just glowed!

Flash forward 1 whole year later and now we are celebrating our little babies' birthdays just a month a part! I was so excited to bring Kinsley over for her first birthday party invite, while secretly shopping for ideas haha. Picnic and Kites with vintage accents. ADORABLE! She worked really hard and it showed! Ansley loved just scooting around and soaking up the attention, while still slightly unaware that everyone was there just for HER!
