We spent the day with our friends, ate lots of yummy food (including Carrot Cake Cookie Sandwiches; in lieu of a cake) and opened some presents! It was an absolutely wonderful, stress free day.
This year, Tim made her a sensory table and bookcases for the playroom. The table turned out awesome! We're hoping to have at least one bookcase put together by tomorrow night. I'll post some pictures of the playroom once we get everything set up. We also got her a wooden art easel (and cow jammies...of course).
Our wonderful family and friends sent Little Miss Josie boxes filled with all sorts of goodies, sweet cards, emails, telephone calls, and text messages. Thank you to everyone who thought of our baby girl on her special day! We appreciate it! She is definitely one loved little girl!
