Joel's 1!

Well yesterday we attended Joel's 1st birthday party. :)

He was so handsome:



Paisley wore a dress that my mom had passed on to me (my sister and myself both wore it, I believe):







Annalise was there:



As was Meredith:



And Cashlin:



And Libby!





Joel enjoyed his cake:





I designed a new applique (which I hope to sell, but still need to work it out a little more). Made it for Joel, along with a matching card.

More playgroup

Paisley got to check out the "soothing centre" at Barb's house. She was in it for about 20 minutes. She was starting to get a little fussy, so I put her in it, lowered the canopy so she couldn't see everyone, and hoped she might go to sleep. But she just played in it. It's amazing what just a time out does for this girl. Almost as good as a nap.



Joel was at playgroup too. He must have been in a lap when I was taking photos. But here he is when we arrived. Paisley likes to try to get him unbuckled all the time.



Notice that Paisley is slightly orange. The doctor noticed this... and I never really had noticed it. She does love her orange veggies.

Playgroup

Playgroup this last week was held at Barb's house (Cashlin's mom).

Annalise, Meredith, and Paisley were there:

As well as Callie and Cashlin:

Here's another shot of Meredith:

And of course we can't forget Raylee, who seemed to allude all the group photos. Her bucket seat doesn't slow her down at all, she can scoot anywhere she wants to go:

The only little one that didn't come this week was Libby, but she's at the fussy 2 month stage, so we can understand.

Next week playgroup comes to my house. Not nearly as much space at our place, but will still be fun.
