Hadassah is ONE!!!

Can you believe it? We can't!!

Although the day wasn't fantastic for Hadassah, since she had a low grade fever all day and was out of sorts, she did perk up at cake and present time, as you can see...

Friends of ours, the Huckstead's, have this tradition of letting their kids "go at" the cake on their first birthday. We thought that might be a tradition we'd like to try...


She really got into it after a few cautious taste tests, looking up at mom and dad to confirm that yes, this is allowed.
Of course, dad "had" to show her how to do it...


Apparently, a great time for giving kisses is when one's mouth is covered in chocolate icing!!
*Yeah!! I made it through my first year!*


She was more interested in her cards from mom and dad, and grandma and grandpa, than getting into those gift bags...
But eventually she got out her new bath toys and bubble bath! Much needed bath toys...poor girl has been playing with a cup and spoon and her toes for 6 months now!!


And so the day is over, she's our little toddler now. No more baby. Sad, but exciting at the same time. It's quite amazing to see God's handiwork as she grows and develops. Now on to more teething and potty training...
