Birthday Bash!!!

Well... a lot has been going on lately and I finally feel like its starting to wind down. First of all our "baby" just turned one year old and I still can't believe it!


Its kind of a bitter sweet for me.. bitter because my baby isn't my baby any more and is just growing up too fast and of course sweet because of all the fun wonderful memories that we have had with her this last year. She is our greatest blessing!!! Andelyn had her 12 month appointment this week and the poor thing knew exactly what was going to happen the second we got into the dr's office, poor thing. Despite her screaming and crying, she is a very healthy girl! She is now 30inches long in the 80% percentile and 21 lbs 10 oz in the 50% percentile. She is really close to walking and will take about five steps by herself until she realizes she is done. She loves playing and laughing and of course is still into everything! But we still love her even more every day!



We have always said that we want our children to love their culture and know where they came from, so we have decided to do all we can to keep with Brazilian and American traditions. Including the huge one year birthday party. I know some people think that we are crazy, but to us its important and tradition . We decided to have a huge brazilian birthday bash for Andelyn. It turned out great! We had a lot of fun with many friends and family.




Andelyn had so much fun too which made it all worth it.


95% of our guests came in their brazilian attire which made it even better! Everything was in green, yellow, or blue.
I made the cake and was quite proud of it!!!


I almost felt like I was back at home in Brazil (just without our good brazilian friends, but we had quite a few there).


Thank you to all those especially my grandparents and friends who helped out so much for the party I know it was a lot of work, but it was also a lot of fun. So THANKS!! And of course thanks to my wonderful husband who is so great and always supports me even in my crazy ideas!(even though this one was kind of your fault :) )

PARABENS ANDELYN WE LOVE YOU!!!!!!!

I think your crazy...but still loved the party and I think its a great idea to keep her familiar with the Brazilian culture. Although it makes ours seem really lame! Especially our version of Happy Birthday.. talk about BORING! She is so darling and its crazy how fast they grow! Cute post.

I'm sad we missed this! It turned out really cute though. And that cake....amazing. You've got talent in the cake department!
