Lauren's First Birthday Party

I haven't had a chance to upload the video clips from her birthday, but will try to do so later this week. Lauren had an absolutely WONDERFUL first birthday! We had a lovely party where everyone was extremely generous and spoiled her rotten!! Here are a few highlights:

A special shout-out to my mom, Nana, for all her help with the cookies and the cake...and everything in between! She was so wonderful to have around....


Ladybug loved this special rocker with her monogram on it from Mimi and PapaFish! She's already mastered how to rock it back and forth, and even how to slide out of it and remain standing. Amazing!!!
CAKE TIME:

Lauren got her own special cake to dig into. She is usually so reticent about her hands being sticky, so she surprised us by immediately getting a finger or two full of icing. MMMMMMMM...did she like that!

Soon that finger of icing became a handful of cake...and an armful of icing...then the hair got into the action, and soon Mommy realized that perhaps her dress would need to go to the dry cleaners when it was all said and done! :) She LOVED it....as you can see below (pre-bath!)

Look at how pink the water turned:

It really begs the question, Why not white icing????

Yeah - I've been waiting all day! What a blessed baby girl with her Mommy, Daddy, and family who love her so much! O - and that hair did look rather reddish in the tub shot :)
