Birthday Girl

On Friday, March 7th, we celebrated Natalee's first birthday. For her birthday "cake", she got her first ice cream cone with a pink candle on it.
She REALLY enjoyed it!
She even grabbed the ice cream out of the cone with her right hand. She didn't seem to mind the cold too much and it didn't take her long to finish it off.
On Sunday, we celebrated again with the grandparents and Uncle David. Caleb helped me decorate the cupcakes. I put on the chocolate icing, and Caleb put smiley faces on them with the pink icing. To his credit, the icing was quite thin; I had put it in a plastic bag and snipped off the corner, and he did really well, for what he had to work with.
We had pink balloons and green balloons. Natalee was quite tired because of the time change and she only had one short nap because of church, so she spent quite a bit of time vegging with her Grandma's and sucking her fingers.
Another birthday cake! Once again, she did not disappoint us...
Mmmmmm, chocolate icing! She finished the whole cupcake!
In her new wagon! Andrew also enjoyed the arrival of this new set of wheels.
With Grandma B. and the Alphabet Caterpillar from Uncle David. You can't see it very well, but it has a letter (capital letters on one side, lower case on the other) on each colored segment. It's really long, and really neat!

Looks like she REALLY enjoyed the candle too! I love the look on her face when that candle is around. Great news that wagon is! Looks like a good one too :)
