Mia’s First Birthday

We were so excited to have Memommy and Grandma Barb here for Mia’s first birthday party on February 10th.  Mia started walking just a week before her birthday, so she was toddling all over the place and playing all day long.  We spent the morning preparing everything.  It was an Elmo theme, and Grandma Barb brought all things necessary to make an Elmo cake!

The final product was beautiful, and all of the kids at the party loved it!

Mia spent the morning sporting her Elmo 1st birthday hat.

And after lunch, all of the guests began to arrive.  We invited friends from the barrio and played games like musical plates and pin the tail on the donkey.  Even Mia got in on the game fun (with a little help, of course!)

Last but not least, we enjoyed the cake……especially the birthday girl.  Yum, Yum!!!

Even now, 3 months later, it is hard to believe that a year has already passed.  Mia grows more every day and gets smarter and smarter!  We love you, special girl!  Thanks for bringing so much joy and so many smiles into our lives!
