Happy 1st Birthday Tatum!!!

It's hard to believe that Tatum is one already. We can't imagine life with out her
and we have just cherished every minute of her sweetness. Here she is not sure what
to think of her party hat but still was a good sport the whole party.

Instead of digging into her birthday cake she had her very first
frosted animal cookie and LOVED it!!

She got so many nice gifts from her many friends. She loved each and
everyone of them equally. She loves all her gracious friends.

She opted for an afternoon nap after her party was over to just play with all her new toys.
Can't say I blame her, even her mommy and daddy sat down and played
with her new toys with her.

Her first birthday cake!!! She was unsure of the candles so mommy helped her blow them out.

She loved unwrapping all her new gifts even if she kind of got overwhelmed.



All the kiddies that came to her party!!!

I kind of went crazy with making yummy food to munch on, I can't help it.
I mean you only turn 1 year old ONCE!!!

I made cupcakes for everyone that came and made the cute toothpick decorations.

Decorations and Food


Tatum got this walker/car for Easter and loves to be pushed around the house until
mom and dad have no more energy.

She is so fun to take pictures of because she smiles at the camera
every time it's in her face.

We had a BBQ in our backyard as a family, we are loving the summer weather.

Tatum loves when we blow bubbles for her.

She just gets cuter and cuter.


Tatum loves to play patty cakes with us.

Kisses from Daddy

T's new pink camouflage sunglasses

Fell asleep on dad in her traditional arms up sleep position.

A few more pictures of our Utah trip. Here is uncle Dustin, Aunt Cori, and cousin McKinley

My sweet new nephew Jaxon that I was able to meet before we left Utah.

Tatum got to go for a ride in her Nana's red sports car.

Tatum's cousin's and two of her aunts on Todd's side of the family.

Tatum loved rocking in Nana's grand kid rocking chair.

Mother's day dinner at my older sister's house. Only sister missing in the picture
is my littlest sister Kelsey.

Tatum's cousins on my side minus two that were not there.

love teasing Tatum

Sporting her cousin's t-shirt because she had a blowout.

We went to my grandma's grave on Mother's day
We had a girls day date and went to Gardner's Village.

Got together with two of my dearest friends Taunya and Sara. We
had fun catching up and laughing like the good old days when they lived in Ohio.

Bathtime in Nana's sink

I ran in the Cinca De Mayo 5K race with my older sister and brother in law.
It was fun and my best time for a 5K race.

My biggest cheerleader at the race!!

Playing with balloons.

Tatum was lucky to have a "pre-birthday" a month before
her birthday while we were out in Utah. She had fun and got spoiled.
Here she is with her Nana.

Hanging out with Grandpa Olsen... My dad!!!

Sun was in her eyes and she was done with all the over stimulation of a party.

Most of her cousins from both sides, a few were missing.

Tatum loves the swings, she just giggled and smiled the whole time.

She is getting sooo cute. Sometimes I just want to squeeze her. In a cute way. Her party was so fun. You are awesome!
