Emilyʼs 1st Birthday
by Rebecca on 2010-08-15
Emily turned 1 on Tuesday. Instead of writing a tear-jerker post about how time flies, or how my baby went from this ball of fluff to this cheeseball, Iʼm just going to post pictures from her two birthday parties.
The Waco Party
Apparently we didnʼt do a good job of explaining the function of birthday candles.
Yay for cake! (Do you like how careful sheʼs being with it?)
Iʼm sad that this picture is blurry because look how excited she is to get a present!
A picture book with nothing but kittens. Best birthday present ever!
Pretending to be Indiana Jones with Uncle Matthew
The Austin Party
We played Jenga
And ate gobs of guacamole.
We opened presents.
We tried on a new bib. (Thanks, Janelle!)
We luxuriated in our new feather boa. (In restrospect, this may not have been the best move on my part because now my house is littered with tiny little feathers, almost as if a pillow exploded in my living room.)
We earned a dollar. (Thanks, Great-Grandma Jackson!)
We ate more cake. (Again, see how careful she is?)
Happy Birthday, Emily!
