Yesterday was her big day....It was a fun but busy day. When she woke up in the morning Mommy and Daddy both went in and started singing "Happy Birthday." She didn't know quite what to make of it--she was crying because she wanted her bottle and didn't appreciate our musical talents. But she cheered up and had a happy day. Here she is posing in her monthly birthday chair pose, but this time she got to wear a crown (it says "fun to be 1") and a button that says, "I'm one year old today."Grandma and Grandpa (Mommy's parents) came in the morning and Grandma helped Mommy get ready for the party. Here are the decorations and the cakes I made. She loved her balloons!
Granny and Papa (Daddy's parents) came later in the day with cousin Ashley and they played awhile. Around 5:00 two of Daddy's sisters came with more cousins and the party began. We had dinner, then cake, ice cream, and presents. She liked hearing us all sing happy birthday to her! She wouldn't keep her crown on, though, so that's Mommy's hand trying to keep it on in the picture.
She had a little cake of her own and she dug right in. It was pretty funny to watch. After awhile, though, she finally had enough and started rubbing the icing in her hair!
She had no interest in her presents--just the ribbons on the packages. So Mommy unwrapped them all! Every once in awhile she'd come over and look and play with something, but she always went back to the ribbons!She was such a good girl and even though she was up well past her bedtime, she was smiley, playful, and having a good time. It was exhausting, but a fun day. I can't believe our little girl is one.
