One

Our little girl turned one this week. A lot of people told us it would go by fast. It has.

Here is a link to her introduction post from one year ago. What a joy indeed.

Lydia has always loved the Happy Birthday song. This time we sang it for her on her birthday.

Apparently she also loves Bundt Cake. She wasn't sure about it at first, but once she tasted the icing on the bottom of the candle, there was no stopping her...except to share with Mom.

Thank you family and friends for all of the calls, cards, and gifts Lydia received.

We also had a pre-birthday celebration with Grandma while she was helping us move. Here are some photos of Lydia at her favorite train themed restaurant, 2 Toots. The first photo is Lydia pointing to the actual train tracks outside. She had her first cupcake at 2 Toots, which was quite interesting. She started out by eating it one sprinkle at a time.

Happy Birthday Monks! We love you.
