My little girl is one year old today. All day I was thinking about where Justin and I were one year ago - in the hospital with our little bundle of love. It has been such an emotional day for me, I tear up every time I think about Kate and how much she has changed this past year.

I took off today and had a wonderful time spending all day with Kate. We spent most of the day running errands for the big party tomorrow. She had an early morning doctor's appointment and got a good report. She is in the 20% percentile for height (28 1/4 inches) and weight (18 lbs 15 oz) and is in the 45% percentile for head circumference (44.7 cm). Kate has just moved up to size 3 diapers and she is wearing size 12 month clothes. I'm shopping around for a "big girl" (convertible) car seat since she is quickly out growing her infant car seat.

No shots today, but we have to go back next week. I was afraid Kate wouldn't feel good for her party tomorrow so I decided to schedule a separate shot appointment. My next goal is to transition Kate to whole milk and a sippy cup.
Tonight we had a wonderful family dinner at Old Town Cafe to celebrate Kate's birthday. She wore her adorable birthday dress and was a very sweet girl during dinner. We managed to keep her entertained between the 9 of us.
After dinner Kate and I opened a couple gifts.
Ms. Katie and Uncle Jordan gave Kate an adorable pair of brown shoes with bows, a diaper cover with her name monogrammed and a fantastic new fall dress! I'm so excited for Kate to wear her new outfit.
Gigi and Grandaddy also brought Kate something to open tonight, a toy cell phone, which she immediately held up to her ear. She had several phone calls to make during dessert.
It was so special to be able to share Kate's birthday celebration with our family. Thanks to Papa, Mimi, Nanny, Gigi, Grandaddy, Ms. Katie and Uncle Jordan for coming tonight!
