HAPPY BIRTHDAY!



















OBVIOUSLY Addy had a great time at her birthday party! It was her first real sweet treat and she destroyed it! It was a classic one year old smash cake experience... videos soon :) Thanks to my mom for doing the icing job on the cake - it made it look so fun and special!

One of the fun things about Addy's cake eating experience was that she kept clapping for herself... congratulating herself on whatever she must have done to deserve this incredible dessert! As a matter of fact, she liked her cake so much that when we took it away it took her TEN MINUTES to stop crying! I think I should've stuck with the cupcake idea!!

We had 21 people in our cozy casa so its a good thing we decided to stick with a family only party or people might've had to eat their dinner in the bathroom!

Thanks so much to everyone who came and blessed little Addy so generously. It was a bit overwhelming to be so showered with gifts. I'm afraid she's well passed spoiled at this point. I'll post some pictures of her playing with her new toys soon but for now enjoy the ones of her on her new chair from Grandma and Grandpa Hamstra. She spent half of her present opening time crawling up and down the chair.... and standing up and down too.... looks like an opportunity for training :)

So, Happy Birthday sweet Addy. You are one well loved little girl!!

Addy,
I emailed you yesterday and you did not reply.

Are you too good for me now that you are one?

Happy Birthday, Sweetie! Hard to believe she is one already... Looks like a great party, and what a cute little chair~!

Dominique is a MAJOR Addy fan and LOVES to see the videos of her! As soon as a video gets over, she starts doing the sign language for "more". :) We just done going through the archives and watching all the videos of Addy and Dominique would imitate everything Addy did. :)

So, see you Wednesday?
