FIRST BIRTHDAY!!!!

Yay! We had Marlee's birthday party this Saturday. I was so busy all week leading up to it. I made a cake for Zach and decorated for his birthday too because his birthday was on the 13th. I tried decorating Marlee's cake to look like her party decorations. I think I did ok for my first time ever decorating. Zach's cake....I wasn't sure what I wanted to do, so it really doesn't have a theme per say. I am happy overall anyway. After I set everything up I realized that she really did get a lot of stuff! I was shocked at all her little "prizes"! Thanks everyone for sending her some cool stuff! She didn't really get what was going on, but she had fun. She did cry though when I put a party hat on her. She didn't like it at all. It took a little bit for her to calm down and then we did the cake. How COOL was that!!?? It was so sweet to see her eat her cake. She barely touched it at first and put it to her lips. Then, she got more and more each time. I was a little worried that she may go into a diabetic coma because all the sugar!!! She LOVED it!! I felt so bad when we took it away because she cried again! Poor baby... She had started to open presents, but she was so sleepy so we put her down for a nap. She finished opening her gifts later. It was busy, but fun and we had the pleasure of the Bouslough's company. It was a nice day. Both the babies actually took a nap close enough together that we got some adult hanging out time. That was nice. After all was said and done I am so blessed to have the daughter and husband that I do. I hope they had a good time this weekend. Next year hopefully we will have family there too! We can't wait!
