Happy 1st Birthday Baylee!!

I can't believe how quickly this year flew by...it's amazing to think my little girl went from

to

Our weekend started out picking Auntie Mia up from her trip in Portland to come celebrate with us. We had a good time walking around the outlet center in Centralia and having dinner with Sarah and her hubby Sam.
Telling us stories at dinner
and just being cute
The following day was her big birthday celebration!
Chatting with some of her guests

Uncle Parish even made the trip up to celebrate

What's a birthday without your bestie to help play with all your new toys!
She wasn't sure what to think about everyone singing to her...
But she had no problems eating the whole thing! Grandpa even snuck her seconds. Eh, it's your birthday, enjoy it kiddo!

We got to spend lots of time the following days with Malia, hanging out with her friends...
Playing in the sand and chatting away

Best friends forever! I am so thankful for this girl in my life! We've been friends since 4th grade, so exciting getting to have her in my little girls life now

Our first ferry ride into Seattle

We were even able to catch an Angels game. At the Mariners stadium. I may live in WA now, but I'll always be an Angels fan!

We had a great time during Malia's visit, Baylee tried to get her to stay, or go with her, still not sure. Overall, it was a wonderful birthday week for our little one year old!

How could I forget? Baylee took her first steps a week before her birthday, was taking 4-8 by her 1st birthday, and full blown walking a week later. Here's her stumbling through her birthday.
