Party Girl!

Katie's first birthday party was a lot of fun!

She opened presents...


And even tore some of the paper herself!

She got her first baby doll and first puzzle, a huge panda bear (from gramps!) some cute sleepers, and tons of busy activity toys.

Then, of course we all sang happy birthday, while Katie preened and flirted away.


And Mommy clearly took too long cutting the cake.


Katie was very funny about eating the cake. For the most part, she was really tidy about it. She was much more interested in actually eating it than in smearing it and making a big mess. It's like she didn't want to waste any of it. :)


At one point, she picked up the whole slice, but just nibbled at it. She did, however, get sufficiently sticky before getting down to play with her new toys.


Katie had tons of fun playing with Grace and Aiden!


Happy Birthday, Katie!
