My First Birthday Party!!!

It was a big day that we celebrated with a 'birdie' party. Nana helped Mama with the food and decorations. It looked beautiful.

I looked pretty darn cute, too. Mama made my ruffly outfit. All my favorite people came to celebrate with me.

We jumped and threw balls in the bounce house. I've got a pretty good arm they tell me.


Since I'm such a big girl, I got a new table just for me and my friends from Nana and Papa Cossell.

I was so surprised when I saw a bunch of animals show up for my very own petting zoo! Quincy got to take a goat for a walk on a leash. My friends got to pet all the different kinds of birds and rabbit and goats. The chicken even sat on Nathan's head!

Uncle Steve and Dada proved to be good sports when they also agreed to wear a chicken on their head.

Then, there was cake. That's what Quincy was waiting for all day. I got my very own big birthday cake!! I started out cautiously, but got more and more aggressive as time went by.

Did you seriously give me this entire cake all to myself? This must be some type of mistake!

And here, Mama insists on me wearing a hat. No, thank you!

I made good use of my sugar-high in my bounce house.

And then I got to open presents.

I love stuffed animals so I got a huge puppy from Madeline.

And Uncle Matt and Auntie Amanda gave me the loudest, most annoying gift according to my Mama. I just love dancing to all the tunes.

And here I am, stripped-down, since I had cake all over. It was a good day!
