I can't believe my baby girl is ONE!! It has gone by so fast. Last weekend we had Scotlyn's birthday party. It was so much fun. She had a blast.I made her cake. I was a little nervous about it, I have never made a cake to look cute, but I think it turned out good. It was a lot of fun to make. I just did fondant dots on regular frosting. The fondant was really easy to make, but it made a HUGE mess!! Every inch of my kitchen was covered in powdered sugar and frosting. This is the final product. The little one was Scotlyn's, cuz I wanted her to be able to dig in, and boy did she.. Here are the highlights........


Singing happy birthday...



This one cracks me up, she thought everyone needed to keep clapping for her after every bite she took.


No hands... she just gettin to the good stuff!

She was COVERED!!

She didn't want to unclench her fists, so when we were giving her a bath she was still trying to put cake in her mouth!

This was a toy she got, I think my dad like it more!!

Thanks to everyone that came, we so appreciate it. We all had a blast. She got so spoiled with gifts. We love you all, thanks so much.
My mom got her a sesame street kitchen at the the DI. She loves it. My mom got it brand new in the box for only 3 bucks!! Gotta love mom and Taush scouting the DI every other day!


Speaking of the DI... I went there this morning just to check things out. I thought it opened at 9, so I got there at about ten to ten, and guess what there was in the parking lot?!..... A LINE! at the DI. Hilarious, kind of embarrassing that I was there with them. EH.
Some things Scotlyn is doing and loving right now....
She loves to act like she is talking on the phone. Saying "Hi Dad"
She loves to just say HI. The funny thing about it is that she doesn't say it in a cute little high voice, she says it kinda low. It's hilarious!!
Not walking quite yet, she'll take a few steps here and there, but she can get around much faster crawling.
She loves the dishwasher!
She loves her front facing carseat(wait, or is that me?)
Words she says.... Dad, Dog, Moma,cockadoodledoo(ok so it comes out as cocka, but it's when she is pointing to the rooster, so I figure it counts!) and Hi-- If she's in the mood she'll try to copy what you say, but that is only every now and then.
She is so fun. I crack up every day.
Pregnancy is going good. I feel really good, I have energy and am not sick, but my oh my,my back hurts so freakin bad. I think I'm carrying the baby different than I did with Scotlyn and it is sending pain down my legs if I make one wrong move. Oh well what do ya do? Actually if any of you have any suggestions that might help, I would love to hear em.
We are still not finding out what we are having, I was so on board at first, but now it is driving me crazy. I really want to be prepared, but how? I am trying my best.
I am doing Scotlyn's new room, and it is coming along very well. It is in pink and navy blue. maybe I'll feel better when I have both rooms done, I doubt it!! I keep telling Scott it just goes to show how much I love him!!
Sorry for the ubber long post... thanks for stickin with me.

Look at you go, Miss Domestic. The cake looked professional to me. Love keeping updated on your fam's life. Time goes by so flipping fast. Miss you guys. *
How sweet. The cake was darling and the pictures of her eating it are a hoot! What a doll. Glad you are doing well but sorry about your back. Sounds like you need a good foot rub, come see and I will do it for you. (I need to practice so I can do my foot zoing again, so N/C) Thanks for sharing!
Happy b-day to cute lil Scotlyn!! :) Her cake turned out darling!! And all the pics of her eating it are priceless :)
Happy Birthday Scotlyn! Way cute cake, you did awesome...Wow she grew so quickley... she is such a cutie...
Man she is so stinkin cute. I am glad she dove into her cake. It is something that we moms build up in our heads and then sometimes they just don't cooperate (Anna) and the whole thing is anti-climactic. And hey, your cake turned out super cute! Way to go you!
Wow! I can't believe she is one already! Her cake was so cute! I love how you let her dig right in!
Happy Birthday Scotlyn!! Her cake is so cute you did a great job. She is such a cutie!! Sorry about your back if you find something that works let me know. We really need to get together and hangout. Have Scott call us.
I cant believe she is one!!!!!! Thats crazy! I love the cake, how did you make the fondant? I have always wanted to try, my cakes usually suck because I can't decorate to save my life!
Happy Birthday Scotlyn! What a doll! I swear you just had her yesterday! Man time flys...

Crazy how fast that first year goes! Her invitation is so cute! I can't believe your mom got that for 3 bucks at the DI! Awesome!!! And I love how you were there when there was a line! Hilarious!
That pic of your dad with the dog face on or whatever, makes me laugh!
I keep forgetting your pregnant! I love that you're sticking to the surprise. Pink and Navy Blue sounds adorable for Scotlyn's room.
Shawni, she is so cute!! I love the cake pictures especially the one of her clapping. I can't beleive she is saying so many words. My baby boy turned 1 in decmeber and he is barely starting to say momma and dadda.
So how far along are you? Lets see some prego pics!
I had terrible back and hip issues when I was pregnant. It got worse with each pregnancy. I saw a chirpractor during my second and third pregnancies and I SWEAR by it.I was going twice a month and by the end I was going weekly just so I could walk. Seriously give it a try and see how you feel. Hope it works for you as good as it did for me!
Take care!
xoxoxo
What an awesome cake you made! So dang cute. I cannot believe her hair! So jealous. And her birthday invitation??? That pic of her is so adorable. I need to finally get a pic of Eva in her tutu.
