Opening presents

Rhonda authored and illustrated The Book of Philipenos

to help Kimber communicate with me since I often get phrase and words mixed up

Lamb Cake

Wednesday, November 3, 2010

We head to Grandnanny & D's house for dinner and for Kimber to celebrate her 1st birthday with a lamb cake. Mimi (Adam's grandmother) traditional made a lamb cake for the granddaughters' first birthday...and the tradition lives on.

Happy 1st BirthDAY

Tuesday, November 2, 2010

I had the day off and Adam took the day off so we could celebrate with Kimber on her 1st birthday! We had such a wonderful and busy day!

Took one-year pictures!

Ummm...one year pictures are not as easy as the previous. She was a ball of energy. Kimber had a melt down in the field as we were taking family pictures. And as she "melted" down she wallowed in deer poop in her beautiful cream corduroy outfit.

Ate lunch at Panera

The Andersons and Westbrooks came over with a smash cake for Kimber!

This was right after Kimber "found" the bathroom door opened and played with her two pacifiers in the toilet bowl...lovely just lovely.

I set the table with China (this is the first time we have used our China) to celebrate Kimber's special day! Grandparents were invited to come over to help make memories with us.

Happy Birthday to YOU!

The tradition continues...one present for each month!
Gifts #1-12 with a special note for each.

Reading her new book

Grand and Poppa.
Thank you for celebrating with us!

Sweet Baby!

Happy Halloween

Sunday, October 31, 2010

Happy Halloween! We started our trick-or-treat rounds early on Sunday afternoon. We had a couple of house to go to.

Our sweet little pumpkin!

OH! I just love her!

The Westbrooks were the first stop...

Amy was in her costume - a firefighter

Jessi was Jessi

& please notice how Kimber is looking at the hat...

Kimber ringing the door bell

D & Grandnanny were second

The Andersons were third

Kimber checking out her loot...

And Grand and Poppa were next...

& we were O-V-E-R it!

Kimber did great for the time she wore her costume. It paid off to have her wear it around the house for the month of October. Cannot wait to trick-or-treat with her next year.

Kimberly & Eric's Shower

Saturday, October 30, 2010

Kimberly (Rhonda Anderson's daughter) was in town from California with Eric...they are expected their first child in March. So, we had to have a party! Amy and I hosted the tacky but always fun (& I will continue to give) inappropriate shower mixed with a real gift card shower! Hands down the "funnest" baby shower! A great time was had by all - at La Fiesta Mexican restaurant!

Happy 28th Birthday!

Wednesday, October 27, 2010


I was able to celebrate my 28th birthday with some of my favorite people: Kimber, Adam, Momma, and Daddy. I requested my traditional birthday dinner - spaghetti! I had a wonderful birth month!

Love my new butter dish!

Happy Birthday! First birthday as a Mom.
