I'm Older than I've Ever Been, and Now I'm Even Older...

My first birthday party was the best birthday party ever!

I woke up first thing in the morning and mommy and daddy let me open a giant present. It was all in pieces, but daddy got excited and put the whole thing together (with some help from mommy.) It was a walker. And when I get bigger, it turns into a little rider so I can push around the house. Right now I am practicing walking behind it. I am getting pretty goo too.

The party was full of people. Sunshine and Cavin came to visit from DC and all of my best buds from Greensboro were there too! I missed all my aunties and uncles and grandparents who couldn't make it, but there were still tons of presents.

Daddy decorated the back yard with tents! It was really, really hot. Just like the real Bonnaroo. But Samapalooza had a pool so the bigger kids were swimming in that all day. The grownups were cooking everything from hot dogs and veggie burgers to squid and chicken from the carniceria. I wasn't that hungry. There was too much to do besides eat. Daddy had set up a stage with guitars, a keyboard, microphone, maracas, harmonica, and a baby xylophone for me to play. Piper sang me a song about being a baby. It was great.

I opened my presents but then I got to eat cake! Sam and I each got a giant cupcake and mom let me eat the whole thing!

Then I started to get tired. I played with my auntie Chris and Auntie Aimee, but then I had to go to bed. I dreamed about giant cupcakes and presents all night long.
