Today Miriam turns one and all through last night I was thinking about what I was doing last year when she got delivered. What a year we've had! She is such a cute engaging little girl who is very interested in everything around her. We probably won't do much to celebrate today other than we have banners up and she is wearing an adorable Happy Birthday onesie because we did most our celebrating this weekend with my parents.
They came late Friday. Saturday we had waffles and Miriam got to play and play with everyone, everybody else took a turn reading her favorite book, "The Monster at the End of the Book". We walked down and had lunch at
Sonic, they had everything 1/2 off for customer appreciation day. Then
Mom and I went shopping and got Miriam her new forward facing
car seat plus a few other things. We came back and went down to the park for a BBQ dinner. I figured Miriam would like that best. Best of all she could eat everything but the steak. We stayed till it was quite dark and she had a great time! It was so late that we hurried home , into the bath and into bed. On Sun after church we had her birthday that Grandma made, Love-A-Lot Bear and opened presents. My cousin Stephanie and husband joined us for both occasions. All in all I think Miriam had a good time.
We let her have first dibs in her cake. She was pretty funny.
Mostly she used her one pointer finger and poked at it and mostly ate the frosting.
We got cute princess
wrapping paper and she enjoyed oping presents. Grandma and Granddaddy gave her some cute clothes, a Princess dish set, purple bouncy ball, giggly doll, and Daddy gave her a train set. I'm still looking for her present so she'll be getting a few more things lucky girl. Happy Birthday Miriam!

Yay! Happy birthday Miriam! By the way, The Monster at the End of the Book is Mason's favorite book too.
That's too funny! Caleb wouldn't even touch his frosting! He had plain cake with no frosting at all, and he burnt his finger on the candle! First Birthdays are so much fun.
indeed! and you'll have to tell me, whenever it is that i make it down, what she still wants/needs. her doting auntie heather hasn't spoiled her for a month or two and thinks she needs a good dose of it again, especially for such an occasion as a birthday! ;-)
What a pretty girl!
Your mom has always been a whiz with cakes--that Care Bear is darling.
I LOVE The Monster at the End of this Book!
