Jessa's 1st Birthday

I always swore that this blog wouldn't get forgotten about or neglected.  After all, it is pretty much the only journaling I do, and the only picture "books" my children have to look at.
And yet, here it is, a month and a half AFTER her birthday, and I am just now getting around to it.
Don't be offended, baby girl.  Momma just has way too much on her plate.

For Jessa's birthday, she got her first real trip to the park, which included her first time on the swings.
She loved every minute of it.

When Daddy got home from work, we did presents and cake.
Jessa was super patient with her brothers continually stealing presents from her so they could do all the unwrapping.

She just wanted what was inside, anyway.
A new baby doll and stroller were among one of her favorite gifts
(we should have saved those for last.  She opened those first and we had a hard time getting her to focus on anything other than those afterwords).
  She also got a riding giraffe that she loves.  
She kept trying to ride her brothers' bikes, so this toy makes everybody happy!
And, her cake.
Which she enjoyed every bite of.

What are some of Jessa's favorite things?
Jewelry of any kind.  Preferably being worn by her.
Shoes.
SUGAR.
Seriously.  We thought Kehlton was bad.  But he doesn't hold a candle to her.  It's a bit out of control.
Her brothers!!!
Reading books
Being outside
Eating.  There is nothing this girl won't eat.
Her blanket
Sleeping in
Her Daddy.  He is, by far, her favorite person.  Which is good; 'cause he kinda likes her too.

We sure love and adore our little Jessa!  She definitely adds a little extra sunshine to our home!
