Katie Grace's big birthday bash!




Well, although the birthday girl has been running a fever for the last couple of days (from teething!) and just not a very happy camper lately, we still went ahead with our plans of having a big family birthday party for her. After all, some sugar and presents should get her better, right??!! Actually, after a good dose of motrin, she did seem to brighten up a bit and decided opening all of the presents was pretty fun. Mommy made her a special teddy bear cake for everyone to enjoy and then she had her own baby bear cake all to herself. Great idea Mom except for the minor detail that when she decided to try her cake (and with this fever and the teething, I should mention that she didn't want to eat anything until the chocolate cake was sat in front of her...imagine that!), it just made her mad when the icing from her hands got on her face. She really showed us how mad it made her too! : ) She is still quite the cutie and seemed to have a great time celebrating her first birthday. Allison and Lauren loved every minute of her party and just couldn't get enough of their baby sister on her special day! They especially loved the shirt we picked out for her special party. It was pink (of course) and said..."Her royal highness is turning 1!!" Too cute! All in all, some more great memories of our baby girl!

I can't believe she's 1 already! Looks like it was a fun few days of celebrating. We always take our kids for steak on their first birthday too...it's a good tradition! And they don't eat too much yet either...
