Lael Monet is ONE!

Lael Monet turned one recently! Here are some pictures of the birthday girl...

Just waking up from her nap to greet her guests. 

Rachel did a fantastic job of decorating! 

Princess for the day! 

Sweet Jade! Doesn't she look like Tori in this picture? 

Birthday girl and her auntie! 

Proud grandmas! 

Checking out her gifts! 

"I'm a big girl" -- she wanted to hang out with the big kids in the Tangled theatre! 
Rach, being the creative genius she is, turned Lael's room into a theater, complete with movie popcorn and a curtain around the laptop! 


Gwenna loves strawberries, and cousin Sarah! 

Thanks, Aunt Rose! 

Delicious and sooo cute! 

Also delicious and cute! 



Telling Jen about her new beau! 



Already a fashion princess! 




Ready to go shopping! 

Who can I get to give me some of these? 

Yeaaaah!!!

Sweet birthday girl! 

Who will read this to me? 

Lael will drop everything when there's a book to be read! 

Just like mama! 





A good time was had by all! 

Grammie heaven! 


Haaaappy birthday to you! 

She LOVED having all eyes on her, singing to HER! 

Aaaand LICK! 

More interested in the candle than the cake! 

Hmm....

Yep, I tried it...

No thank you! 

Upon hearing she's going to get a strawberry! 

Gwenna was deprived cake and ate her shoe in protest. 

Happy birthday girl!


I love her so much! Happy first birthday, sweet Lael!
