First Birthday

Our shining little sugar pie is already one. Wow. But how fun! Every day she shows more personality and character. She's a little shy, but after a moment of warming up is surprisingly extroverted. She has nerve, walking away - and keeping going - in order to investigate her surroundings. No matter if Mom follows! She takes no guff from her older brother, and holds on to what she wants when he tries to remove it from her grasp. She'll even instigate occasionally by walking up to him and tapping him on the head. They'll wrestle and giggle. Of course, it can go too far sometimes, but she certainly can hold her own for a while. She loves to eat still, but it's organizing more into fruits and dairy versus meats or protein.

Anyway, we had our little birthday party for "Raggedy Annabelle" (it was a Raggedy Ann theme). She desperately needs girlfriends because she was the only girl at her party. But, as I mentioned, she held her own with all those little boys! We enjoyed cupcakes, some gifts and she explored the feeling of cake icing between her fingers. We all had a great time. And now -- spring!
