Kaleia Shalom Turns 1!

We celebrated your special day first with a present...

You got to talk to your Papa on the phone. He wished that he could be with you on your birthday. We missed him too, but in a couple of days, we get to celebrate with him in California.

Later, Mama and Maggie took you out to lunch. Then, Nana joined us for some ice cream at Mallard. Banana-Blueberry was in your cone, but you sampled all of ours.

(Pointing your finger at your mouth is how you sign eat. You loved the ice cream!)

After a good rest, we brought a party to Mama's soccer game -- pizza and cupcakes! All the kids at the game made you cards and were very excited to celebrate your birthday!

You did not meticulously pick off the frosting like your sister did, but instead shoved the entire mini-cupcake in your mouth. Unfortunately, we had camera (operator) failure so we don't have any good pictures.

Happy Birthday Gremmi-Bear!
You have brought so much joy and happiness to us in your first year!

Papa, Mama, and Magnolia love you very much.
