We had Amelia's 1st Birthday party on August 15th. A little early, but we wanted to have it when Aunt Kimmy was in town.
Overall, the party was a huge success! We had a rough start though. Amelia got up from her nap (only about 40 minutes) and would have gone back down, but I forced her into her party dress. She was already cranky, and then when I brought her out to a room full of people, she had a MAJOR MELTDOWN! Eventually she got warmed up to everyone and had fun playing with her friends.
We had a friend of mine, Trisha, take pics of the party so we didn't have to worry about missing anything. It'll be a little while until we have the pictures, so here are some that my parents took for now. Of course I'll post again with Trisha's pictures when I get them!

Dessert table - cupcakes made by my mom & sister (thanks!), Amelia's cake made by me (Allergen-free cake by Cherrybrook Kitchen, available at Whole Foods)
I found these wall stickers at Babies R Us that matched our theme. We're putting them up in Amelia's room now that the party is over.

Feel free to post the slideshow or "steal" any pictures from the slide-show! :) (After the slideshow is done, there is a way to "steal" them by right clicking and "save as".) :)
