Scarlett turns one! {September 14, 2013}

Our sweet little baby girl is a year old now! She's standing on her own, and took her first steps a few days ago.  She's been saying mama and dada for a while and gives the best hugs (leans her head on you) and open mouth kisses : )  The most loving little girl, and her expressions just melt me!    Our little Scarlett has become quite the accessory girl.  Any necklace she finds MUST be worn~ along with hats, sunglasses, socks and shoes.  I have broken a crying spell with eyewear more than once, and we shop in the grocery store regularly wearing her favorite neon yellow goggles.  The looks we get are hysterical.  : )  I haven't come across anything this little lady won't eat.  We call her the little piranha because as long as she is in the kitchen, she begs for food!  You just can't eat without sharing~    The last few weeks she has been stuck like glue to her mommy and loves to be carried.  I try not to tire of the hip ornament she has become though~ I know I will soon miss having her there when she's big like her sister : )   Such a sweet baby~           For her cake smash session, I got a little crafty (which usually only happens in my head these days) and tried to make everything : )  I got the fabric for her pants at HobbyLobby (sorry I have no pattern to share : / I had to wing it by looking at another pair she has) and covered a paper party hat with extra fabric and hot glued on some feathers.  We also cut banners from craft paper and hot glued the ribbon across the top.  Reagan and I of course made the cake and icing which she was so proud of~ my little baking queen!  All very worth it and so much fun : )
