Whitney's 1st Birthday!!



Happy Birthday to our Baby!! I can't believe it's been a whole year! For Whitney's 1st Birthday we had a few friends and family members over to party. Brig grilled burgers and I made some cakes. I made one cake for Whitney to dig into and another one to eat just in case she demolished her cake. But, by the time she was through with her "Tinker Bell" cupcake it had minimal damage. Whitney is not a very aggressive eater, so she just picked at the icing and only got to some of the cake. I guess I was glad that cake wasn't all over her and the floor! We taught her to blow out a candle for the big day, but she wasn't quite able to blow the flame out on her cake. Maybe the candle was too far away because she blew at it and it flickered, but didn't go out. Now she blows at everything and when she sees a match box or a candle she starts blowing. She got some great toys and I hope they will keep her busy. By the end of the night Whitney was so tired!! She went right to sleep and slept all night...even after eating chocolate cake, icing, ice cream, and cheetos!

I can't believe she is already 1 YEARS OLD! She is growing so fast and is so precious. It is so fun to see all the things they learn during that first year, but I think their second year is even more fun. It will be a year of milestones.

Happy Birthday Whitney! I can't believe it's been a year. Cute cupcake idea! I really struggle with the cakes, even after taking a class. Anyway, we got the same "baby" doll for Kaitlyn when she turned 1. She still sleeps with it and loves it! Between their 1st and 2nd year they grow so much. Get ready!

Fun milestone! Birthdays just keep getting more and more fun as they get older. Brent gagged when he demolished his first cupcake, I guess he was grossed out by the way the gooey frosting felt.
