Par-Tay!!!

Adie's party was so much fun! We had a big ol' cookout with all her grandparents, great grandparents, aunts and uncles, cousins, adoptive aunts and buddies. It was such a great time. =)

She was a little confused with the hat...

but knew EXACTLY what to do with her cake. =)

Pretty sure she would have eaten the entire cake if I wouldn't have cut her off. The girl loves her sweets. I don't know WHO she gets it from!??? Daddy but of course. =)

Isn't this cute? The gift all the babies enjoyed was the Leap Frog stand and play toy from uncle Greg and aunt Natalie. They were like hawks when they saw that fun music making madness come out.


So yeah, all in all it was great fun and my baby is growing up!

***
Just a little bit of an Adie health update... last Friday we had a dr's appointment for her one year check up. After the nurses and Dr measured her head 4 times to make sure they got an accurate measurement, they came to the conclusion that Adie's head size is growing a little too largely. We are going to monitor her head growth for another month and her pediatrician says that if it grows more than a quarter of an inch he will order a CT scan to make sure there are no growths or liquid on her brain. She shows no developmental delays and doesn't she any signs of having liquid on her brain... they just aren't happy with how fast her head is growing. So yeah, if you all could shout out a prayer to the Big JC, we would much appreciate it. If we have to do a CT scan in a month, I'm pretty sure they'll find the healthiest, smartest brain that a one year old ever possessed. Yep. Thanks, guys. =)

***
Love that she hates to crawl in the grass... makes for good (not moving) pictures. =)

And don't let her fool you.. that big ol smile is not for the camera.. it's for daddy standing behind mommy with the camera. She's such a daddy's girl!!

Happy Birthday, Adie Grace!!!

Hi Darce! Adie's head looks perfectly normal to me!! My husband has always had a big head...seriously...his parents still laugh about it. Back when he was little, they did not do any tests or anything like that...they just laughed at him and pinched his cute ginormous cheeks a lot! I am sure Miss Adie is perfectly normal and healthy! The party looks awesome and she gets cuter by the day!
