Happy Birthday Abby!


Better late than never... we celebrated Abby's 1st birthday in London.  We were grateful to have lots of family there with us, and missed those who weren't able to make it.  Abby had fun playing with Alyssa and Zach.  She was a bit overwhelmed by everything, but she managed to open her gifts (though she wanted to play with each one after she opened them!).  She was fairly tired by the time it was cake time, so she didn't dig in like I had expected.  It was a great way to celebrate Abby's first year, surrounded by people who love her!

I made a banner with a her monthly photos - so you could really see her growth. 

Having fun with Zach and Alyssa


Of course, we need to do goofy faces!

Zach decides Abby isn't opening gifts fast enough


Lots of "what is it?" and then wanting to play with everything as soon as she opens it.


Uncle Scott and Aunt Vero bought Abby this bomber jacket - she has a lot of growing room!  Of course, everyone had to try it on, so we could determine at what age Abby will be when it fits...

Still too big for Zach
Fit Alyssa pretty well (so by age 5 - Abby will fit it!)
And be out of it by the time she's 30?


Cake time!  Mini angel food cake with blueberry whipped cream frosting for Abby - and the big one for the rest of us to share!



I love this one - the older kids "encouraging" Abby to eat her cake!

Sharing with Uncle James


More interested in eating the streamers...

Happy Birthday, Abby!
