Tasha's First Birthday Party


Tasha will be one year old on November 10. I thought it would be fun to celebrate her birthday while they were still here, so we invited her great-grandparents and other family members, as well as my friend Patty and her husband Jim for a Hello Kitty birthday party. She opened her presents with some help from her mommy and daddy and Cousin Ryder. After munching on some pizza (Tasha preferred Cheerios), the time for the main event arrived - singing happy birthday and watching Tasha with her birthday cupcake. She was equipped with her "first birthday" bib, and our floor was prepared with a large shower curtain strategically placed under her high chair. She didn't disappoint us. The cupcake was squished into many tiny pieces, some which even made it into her mouth. She was very entertaining, and it was also fun to watch Ann and Brian as Tasha destroyed the cupcake and swept it back and forth on the tray. This was obviously quite a test for them as they go to great lengths during meal time to keep her and her tray clean. Not this time!! Tasha had learned to point during her visit with us, first with her arm and hand extended and then using her index finger. Every time she used her index finger we kept saying that she was going to be "one". We like to think that she made the connection! Check out more pictures in our Photo Album.
