We've had quite a lot of birthday fun in July, but our last birthday party of the month was our most special. Our niece Julia turned 1 on July 16th and we celebrated her special day on Saturday with a party at her house. She looked too adorble in her little pink dress and was cruising and crawling all over the place. We started the party by eating of course! Abe and I fed Alex and Julia and then got plates of our own. There was an assortment of finger foods, hamburgers, hot dogs, pansit, etc. There also was crabs, but the baby wasn't feeling crabs on Saturday, so I didn't have any myself. LOL. There was also birthday cake of course. She had a cute pink and purple cake with a Precious Moments topper. She also got a lot of nice presents! We got her some fall clothes and pajamas, a soft doll, and a hair accesory organizer. I actually liked the organizer so much, I think I may go back to Target and get one for our soon to be daughter! I know she'll end up with tons of hair accesories as well, so I might just have to get a head start! Speaking of our new baby, we are making plans to change our office into her room sometime in August. We've yet to really do anything to make the switch, but we have a plan at least and thinking of doing it in August before I go back to work. We're moving the desk into our bedroom, the bookcase downstairs and putting the crib and rocker into the room. We're planning on painting it either a light pink or a light purple, depending on the bedding we find. It's so weird getting ready for a girl, when we're so used to everything boy! Anyway, I can't believe Julia is 1 already! She's getting so big, so fast! And I can't believe we'll have another baby here in about 4 months! Below ae some pictures from the party. Enjoy!
