Abbey in Wonderland - Our first birthday!

So over the past 6 months, I have been feverishly planning a birthday party for my baby. Her first birthday! To me, it was a huge deal and needed to be celebrated properly. Everyone, including Charlie, tells me the first birthday is more about the parents than the kid, but honestly I think this day is going to be just as much about her as it will about me and our first year together as a family.

So it's been almost 6 weeks since I started this blog, and I've done nothing in the way of blogging. It seems that I always come up with great ideas for posts when I'm nowhere near the computer, or don't have the time to write anything down. We've been surviving well, and keeping busy. My step daughters birthday is Wednesday, and Thanksgiving is Thursday, so most of my past week has been consumed with getting everything together for that. Luckily we aren't having the holiday here and are going to Charlies family's house, but being the busy person I like to be, I've volunteered far too many things and my plate runeth over so to speak.
