piper's birthday



piper
july 21, 2011
one year old

our little girl turned one year old!

fuzzy pillows do not taste very good.
even when you're one.

she loves the bathroom so much.
she'd play in there all day if i let her.



on piper's actual birthday, the big time one-year-old got to wear a sweet little cake shirt from aunt leslie, which was paired with a pink paper crown at school.  piper ripped her crown on the way home, but kept wearing it anyway.  patrick was out of town, so after daycare, just the two of us went to the park.  it might have been the hottest day of the year. my friend from work meg met us, and instead of having a picnic like we planned, we opted for an air conditioned dinner at a restauarant called feast. but piper decided she wanted to wait for her dada to do any cake.




we planned piper's party about two weeks after her actual birthday, to allow us time to recover from jet lag (i will eventually post about our amazing summer vacation), unpack, and get back into a normal schedule.  it worked out perfectly.  here is the photo album, if you didn't catch it on facebook. we had so much fun and were so happy that so many of our friends could come over and help celebrate with us!

Oldemor (which means "great-grandma") Kitty tells everyone how cute and good Piper is. She ALWAYS adds what a beautiful and sweet mother Piper has. Seriously, ALWAYS. Yesterday she asked me to "hils" you the next time we talked. To "hils" someone means to "send my love". So, "hils" fra Oldemor.

I still can't believe she is one. And I still can't believe how she manages to look JUST like her daddy and JUST like her mama at the same time. She is SO beautiful!!!!
