Happy B-Day Mickey Rae!

My baby girl turned 1 today!

Apparently they have 3rd graders working the cake decorating station at Ralphs. Whatever, she demolished it anyway.

We had a little party for her - just the 4 of us and her best friends Kali and Bella. (Note to self: Make it a point to get McKenna some age and species-appropriate friends this year.)

Erik got her a cute Bambi dress and hairbrush at the Disney store at work. Sage got her a Brobee doll (the last on the shelf at Target) and I got her a Yo Gabba Gabba guitar. McKenna loves music, at the faintest sound of it she'll start shrugging her shoulders and bobbing her head. Like this:



and this:



(Thank you Grammy and PopPop!)

Sage made her a "Summer Book of Fun" inspired by his Highlights magazine.



Can you tell I just figured out how to post videos from our camera onto my blog? I promise not to make it a habit.

Happy Birthday little girl. Don't grow up too fast!

  9. We had a similar kit, and I found the process hard to photograph. Even the butterflies had to be urged to open their wings and look pretty for the camera.
