Pink Party

Here I am at my first birthday party! I got all dressed up in my party dress and party pants. Do you see them? They have presents on them, so that's why they're party pants. Plus, they're pink and match my party. It was pink too. Balloons and streamers and plates--all pink. I am a girl, after all.









They made me wear this silly pointy hat, which I found to be ridiculous, but I put up with it to make everyone else happy, cuz I'm a nice baby like that.











Mama thought she would be silly and wear one too. Who even came up with this pointy hat idea?











I may have gotten a little overwhelmed by all the people. It was kind of crazy at my house, I'll tell ya. But I totally handled it like a trooper, sharing all my toys and everything.







Here you can see me and 7 of my little friends. There were 5 more running around somewhere. Like I said, it was a little bit crazy some of the time, but tons of fun.









Mama made piles of cupcakes along with a huge pan of mac & cheese and several yummy meatloaves for everyone. All my favorites.







Not to mention the snacks and fruits and punch. I could probably eat grapes all day long.








Then! They let ME have a cupcake. Though I thought I had been told not to play with fire, here they are coming at me with a lit candle. Myself not knowing how to blow it out, they did it for me. I'm hoping to learn that skill for next year.





I wasn't quite sure what the big deal was all about so I figured it would be safest to poke delicately.











Mmm...I sure to like sprinkles.












Look! I'm Sprinkle-Face!









Ok, fine, you want me to shove it in my mouth, I will. All this fuss about me making a mess.







What's next? Presents? I like presents.








Well, folks, that's it for another year. Of course, I still have a party with my Grandparents this weekend. I'll be ready with my silly hat on again.










Oh, and Mama says it's a 'delurking' day and that you all have to leave a comment.

It was a great night. Olivia is enjoying "Randi's Picks". And did I overhear that there was squash in the mac n cheese?

Happy birthday to the pink princess! I love having birthday parties for my kids. They are a lot of work but what beautiful memories! Seeing her eat the cupcake reminded me of my boys' first birthday party when we let him eat some cake and icing too. Thanks for bringing up those sweet memories for me.

Oh, my little pink pampered friend, you are the present. Watching you grow has been wonderful. I'm sorry I couldn't be there for the selfish reasons. I'd love to pepper those rosy cheeks with my kisses!

It seems like just just yesterday that you were blogging about your pregnancy. Can it really have been a year+??

She's absolutely adorable.
