Baby Alexis hits the big One!!

So today was sweet baby Alexis's first birthday. The last year has gone by way too fast and I've found myself throughout the year just holding her tight and wishing for things to slow down. She is just so smoochable and fun! I love this little girl so much! I am the luckiest to be her mommy!!
























Unfortunately Alexis had a less than spectacular day starting with a whole lot of throwing up right after breakfast! We decided that it was best to keep her home from church, of course, so she got a big wonderful nap (which she never gets on Sundays!) which helped her to gear up for some celebrating later on.We had just a few family members over to celebrate our sweet girl-Grandma & Grandpa Jensen, Grandma Cammi & Aunt Jessi, and my brother, Jerry, and his family. We opened some presents and ate some cake, so nothing big but of course we needed to celebrate!! Alexis loved every minute of it and was even in such a party mood that she let some family members actually hold her. This is amazing for our major Momma's girl!


















Alexis had no problem knowing out what to do with the cake. We usually make our kids wait until their first birthday before they get their first taste of the good stuff but Alexis has been a little spoiled and wasn't as deprived. She was still fun to watch as she devoured her cupcake.















Happy 1st Birthday Sweet Alexis!!!!
