365 days old...

So I've determined that the first year goes by so fast because you're too busy adjusting to this new little person in your life. I really can't believe what I was doing this time last year, and how greatful I am that somehow Tori has survived the crazy antics of a hair-brained mother. We love this little girl and all her sassiness! For her first bday Grandpa and Grandma Dean came up to Salmon for the celebration and we got to drive down to the Middle Fork on the Salmon River and eat out at the North Fork Cafe, yum! She got a lot of attention, which she especially needed on her birthday since she ended up being extremely overtired and fevering because of her teeth. Not the best day ever, but somehow she managed to hang in there and have a little fun with her family and friends!!

Having fun on our sunny day down river!

Tori's cake! Grandma Sessions decorated it and I had hoped to let Tori dig into it sometime, which she never did, and she cried when I tried to help her blow out her 1 candle. Yeah, I pictured it going differently, but it's a funny memory nonetheless!

Having a sucker with her cousin Meygan and her new dolly! Our friends the Hansens added these suckers to their gift to her and they were a hit...probably the happiest I saw her all day.

Besides this little ride she took with Aunt Krissy on her new fairy buggy from Grandma Sessions.

All in all a fun day with our family and friends and we were greatful for everyone that took the time to share it with us. Tori's such a blessing in our lives. You never know how a child will change you until you have one of your own!
