Paige's 1st birthday!

I'm one! I'm one! Hurray! Of course, I'm not really doing anything a "normal" one year old does. I still refuse to crawl. I'm not walking on my own. Since I've never been the type of baby to put stuff in my mouth, finger food is a work in progress - a slow process. But I have to two teeth with a third on the way, and I have lovely hair.

Mommy decided the best way for a little girl like me to truly enjoy her birthday was for mommy to do nothing all day but spend time with me. No cooking - except for my meals of course. No cleaning, nothing.

We visited daddy at school in the morning, then mommy took me to the pet store to play with puppies (good thing daddy wasn't around to see me put the puppy chew toy in my mouth! Mommy freaked out enough... I guess some things do go in my mouth.)

That afternoon mommy and daddy took me to the park to have a picnic, play ball, and open my presents. To be honest, I would have been perfectly content to just play with and eat the grass.

Then we went home and I ate my first cupcake! Mommy made butterfly cupcakes. Pretty, huh. My first refined flour and sugar ever! Mmm...
