Ready or Not...12 Month Update

Well we made it to the one year mark and now its time to celebrate the big O-N-E! Whitley is not only standing on her own this month but also started taking steps a couple days before her birthday.


What a busy month! We headed to Louisiana to see Granddaddy and Nana and all of our cousins. Whitley started standing on her own and was so excited to do so next to her cousins.


After a fun couple of days in Louisiana, we then headed to Gulfport, MS so Whitley could walk on the beach. It was a quick trip but she loved the waves and sand.

Hanging out in Mississippi...

Then the big birthday arrived...we celebrated with a crib full of balloons...


A breakfast fit for a queen at IHOP...yummy bacon!


Continued on with a day at the zoo where she met Mayor Betsy Price.


And finished the day off at the Children's Museum.


 Then it was time to really party...

The theme was Ice Cream and #ONE...

We had a lot of fun making ice cream themed desserts to include ice cream cup cakes, ice cream rice krispy treats, and ice cream nutter butters.




The Birthday Girl...

Time to try the cake...

I think she liked it...

A baby no more...

 This has definitely been the fastest, but best year of our life.  I hope you all have enjoyed keeping up with Whitley on this blog as much as we enjoyed documenting it. I am going to take a break from blogging for awhile but will continue to post updated pictures on instagram @tmwhitley Thanks for all the kind words and support over the last year +9 months. Until next time...
