Nicole's Birthday!

I have a 1-year-old. Ahhh! Nikki had a great birthday and was lucky enough to have her Grandma there for the party. We went into the city to have lunch with Alex, and then Alex came home a little early from work to start the party.

Nicole got to eat her dinner all by herself - spaghetti noodles with ham and peas and cheese (all things she loves). And then we did the birthday cake! She was so cute - totally surprised that we were letting her play with her food. It took a little while, but she demolished the cake and ate quite a bit, too! Here's a before and after shot.

After cake, we opened presents. She got some very cool things, like a quiet book that her Grandma made, and a foam play mat. Happy Birthday to my big girl!
