My birthday and 16 months




On Monday my family had a little birthday party for me.  My creative sister, Katie, decorated my parent's deck so adorable!!  She made it look like a secret garden, using some of our flea market finds and some new handmade pretties. 
 

Anya tested out our coral high chair we are selling at our flea market.  Isn't it perfect for photo shoots?

Check out these pillows Katie made for me. 
 Adorable, I know! 

The cake was lemon with cream cheese frosting.  And yes, that is an apple pie with hand crafted roses made with apple peel.





 Anya forgot how much she loves cake since she only gets it on birthdays.  She was only eating the blueberries at first.  HA!  It didn't take her long to figure out how good cake is. 
 
She gave us our plate wanting more. LOL!

On another note, Miss Anya is 16 months old.  She is developing quite the little personality too.  She is such a sweet girl, always wanting to help me out (puts away our shoes in the closet, "washes" dishes with a dish cloth, etc).  Anya loves to play with her "Clifford" rocking pup, puzzles...oh she LOVES puzzles, shape ball, and books.  She still adores her farm, play kitchen, and newly painted table and toy box.  Anya says "Mama, Dada, bubble, book, ball, hi, Anya, neigh neigh, all done, yes," and "more".  She loves nature and our wagon rides to the ponds.  Playing "hide-n-seek" is another favorite of hers.  Currently Anya is getting her 11th tooth, and boy has it been a killer for her...low-grade fever, sleeping like a newborn, and not eating well.  And it's taking forever to come all the way in!!  She is finally starting to get some relief.  Anya's favorite book is any "Cookie Monster's Good Time to Eat".  She loves all of the Sesame Street books. 
I love you Anya!
