*Okay, so I failed to communicate that today was the day that we found out we were having a girl, not her first birthday. My bad!*
The Jones family got a big splash of color one year ago today.
Annabeth, here's to monogrammed bloomers, adorable shoes, tea parties, playing dress up, dance recitals, pom poms, pink baseball bats, Easter dresses, playing in mommy's makeup, losing mommy's jewelry, the pilgrimage we'll make to the American Girl store, sweet 16, homecoming mums, decorating your dorm room, finding your first apartment, planning your wedding, baby showers, and rocking your newborn while you take a nap. I love dreaming in pink. And I still can't believe I get to. I love you, baby girl!

She is so cute. I have three girls and I love every minute with them (well, almost ever minute). Pink is in abundance in our house and I love it. Have fun with your baby girl.
Jackson is adorable too, of course.
Besides Harper (I have to say that) - she is the most adorable baby girl I have ever laid eyes on. You are so blessed Amanda!
My dad always said "There is nothing sweeter than a baby girl." With three of his own I guess he knew what he was talking about!
Your Annabeth is a sweetie. Enjoy her!
blessings,
Sister Lynn
Miss Annabeth is so precious and I remember being so excited that you were having a girl. It was just time to yield to pink. ;)
Love,
Patty
How sweet! She is absoloutley precious. Her little outfit is adorable too.
I have two girls and I just love dreaming in pink :)
Amen and Amen! Love those baby girls!!!
Ha! I'm so slow ... when I first read that, I thought, "No way Annabeth is a year old!!" :) - now, I get it ... still, she's is so, so precious.
Oh, Amanda! My heart has never ached so badly for a daughter until I read this post. I love my son more than anything (we finally received the blessing of adopting him two weeks ago today!)...but I would love it if the Lord sent us a baby girl to love and call our own one day.
She is just beautiful! Daughters are the BEST!
I had to comment because I'm reading with my own little lady who will be 2 in a few short weeks. When I clicked for a closer look at the shoes she pointed and repeated over and over, "Mommy, I those shoes on!"
Holy Cow that baby girl is just adorable! I've loved every minute of mommying two precious girlie girls! I'd have loved boys too, but all the pink makes me so happy! Have fun with Miss Annabeth...as you know, it just gets sweeter and sweeter!
So sweet!
There is nothing better....
Her little outfit is just adorable!!
So precious! Her shoes! Adorable! Your pictures made me smile! Your list did too! You have SO many things to look forward too!
My little Lizzy just turned 16... got her license yesterday... I still get teary thinking of her driving off down the driveway... it goes so fast! : (
Have a BLESSED evening Jones family!

Cant believe it's been a year already!
Its the funest bday!
Hooray for Annabeth!! My sister just found out yesterday that she's having a GIRL! Now all three of us have one! LOVE IT!
I absolutely cannot HANDLE the last paragraph of this... may cry right about now.
Happy Birthday, Annabeth!
So precious! I always felt blessed too, to have my girls.
Annabeth just keeps getting more adorable.

She's adorable and so is the outfit! I do love those shoes--so cute.
I loved dressing our little girl and now her little girls!! Wow, have I seen a big difference in styles between 1974 and now! It's all fun tho...enjoy all the shopping and tea parties! Great memories they do make!!
Just nothing sweeter!
One more thing...
I just showed all these pics of Annabeth to my 10 year old daughter and she said, "Mom I want my baby to look just like her! She is sooo cute, she has the prettiest eyes!"
Amanda, she has eyes that is one day going to capture that future husband of hers. LOVE THIS!!! :)
Yeah for all things girly!
She is such an adorable little girl. I love it and I esp love how you treasure it. That is the way it should be.
She is absolutely beautiful, Amanda! It is so much fun to dream in both pink and blue! :-)
Amanda, I hope you frame that second picture! Oh my goodness. Little Miss Annabeth is too precious.
What an adorable post for such an adorable little girl! My 4 year old son is sitting by me on the couch while I am reading blogs and he just told me, "That is such a cute baby." I thought that was cute and funny.
Pink and blue together make it a double blessing. So thankful for your family!
Oh, for cute! What a bundle of "love".
Happy Birthday to sweet Annabeth! My sweet pink bundle, Reese, turned one on Saturday :) After 5 years of blue and green, that pink is so fun! What blessings babies are!!
Seriously. Could she BE any cuter?
I think not.
Just got emotional, giddy, and weepy thinking about doing all of those things with Caroline.
Little girls are so much fun.... and I think that I should constantly remember all of their sweetness during the years of 13,14, and 15. :)
Praise God for Wo-Man!! I just love her!
so precious. this made me teary! girls are such gifts. :)
Old Navy has those shoes again this year in hot pink! i just bought them the other day for my sweet baby girl! too cute!
I am so happy that you get to dream in "multi-color" having both a boy and a girl but I am especially happy that you get to dream in "pink". You are definitely a girly-girl and having a girl to do all those things with is really special.
She is absolutely precious! It is fun to dream in pink, and purple, and bows, and lace, and bloomers...
precious as always.
Did I ever tell you we have an AnnaBELLE living net door and I keep calling her AnnaBETH ?!!!
one word: adorable.
I can only dream in pink - because i'm surrounded by blue! :)
But that's okay; I probably wouldn't be able to form good pig-tails anyway. God just saved some sweet little girl from bad hair.
I cannot believe she is already ONE! There's just no way. Also, I saw you and the little mister at church on Sunday, I was floored at how TALL he is!!
Thank heaven for little girls....
What a sweet post - and she is so cute! I can't even believe the outfit with shoes. So petite, but decked out - like someone else I know.
Siesta OC
Happy Birthday Annabeth!!!!!
so sweet. she is too cute!
Amanda the pictures are sweet I cannot believe how big she is getting our little seista is adorable and you my friend are a blessed mommy.
Love Carol a seista in Albuq.NM
Yay!! I totally want to copy and paste that last part for my daughter Aliya but I won't.;-)
Every little girl needs tons of pink. My fave right now is pink and zebra print - so every little girl can have a little attitude!
i love your "here's to..." list! there is so much celebrating and special moments to be had. there is so much cuteness in that outfit i can barely stand it!
So sweet. Made me cry. Really. She is the prettiest little girl!
We just found out we're having a girl after having a boy first. I NEVER thought this would be so and its taken a little time to sink in. Your post encouraged me so much and gave me a little glimpse of what we have to look forward to...
Bless you!
Oh, the things you have to look forward to! I came home the other night to my shoes being strewn everywhere around the house. Mike said she was wearing them. And there is glitter everywhere (even in Joseph's hair) from her beautiful Tinkerbell costume for the Fall Vegetable. It's the best!
Oh Amanda...she is just adorable! Since i have all boys, i'm convinced that God will load me up with a buncha grandaughters one day! ;)
Have a great weekend!
Hugs..
Fran
That baby girl is BEAUTIFUL!!!!!
Aww, Little Momma, dreaming in pink! I understand!!:) It will be so much fun for you with each stage of her growing up! BTW, love her tiny shoes and outfit!:)
