Happy Birthday Bella Boo

It was a party fit for a princess!! We had 27 guests present. Each guest got to take a tiara birthday magnet home with Bella's picture. I along with my day nurse spent all week getting cupcakes and sugar cookies ready. We made all of it from scratch!! It was quite an experience for me. Presents and cards came in all week from all of our friends from all over. Bella slept through the majority of her party but we still celebrated in style. I matted the poem I wrote her and put pics from different times over her first year on it. I then had everyone sign the back of it with a birthday message. We put her hair in piggies today for Gabi. She had a flashing tiara. She got tons of presents. She literally got a new wardrobe. She got tons of new toys, hair barrettes, duckie trach ties (thank you Sarah), a new pair of pajamas, a photo album special made by Becky and then some baby legs made special by Aunt Stephanie. One very special gift was from her cousin Sami. Sami took some of her Christmas money and got Isabella the adorable stuffed lion that is in some of the pics above. Also a special thanks to Micah, Jason, Graci, Angel Gabi and baby Kinsley for your wonderful gifts. The video below is everyone singing Happy Birthday, and yes I started crying. I just couldn't help getting emotional about the whole thing. I think I broke down about three times. I mean my baby girl is turning one. She is a miracle in every way. So anyways I hate that everyone could not be here but it just isn't safe for Isabella. We Love you all and thank you for sharing in this day with us. I hope you all enjoy the pics and I hope for those of you who could not be here this helps make it feel like you were. Also check out the dress. It actually zipped up to my surprise. She is actually up to 19 lbs 11oz!! WOW!!

So Happy Birthday Bella Boo, you deserve all your hearts desire.
