Happy Birthday Abbi!!!

Abbi's 1st birthday was on the Sunday Feb. 14th. It was a fun day, we had my parents come over for dinner after church, and after dinner the festivities began! Abbi didn't quite know what to think of her cake. She just kind of stared at it, but we got the candle blown out and went on to presents!



Abbi is opening her first present from G & G Welch. She likes to hand whatever she has in her hand to you, hence I get the wrapping paper as she gets to her gift.


Abbi loves the book they got her. It has animals in it with different material etc. to feel. Her favorite is the "fluffy bird" She also got some cute outfits that Grandma Welch made and a cute little dress for when she's older.


I had to help unwrap the next present, but when Abbi could see what was in it...move over mom! She was pretty excited to see that she got a purse with her own things to go in it! I told my mom that Abbi loves to get into my purse and go through everything, and my mom was a genius and found this purse for Abbi! She absolutely loves it!


We got Abbi her own vacuum! I know, many are thinking wow, but Abbi loves it when I get our vacuum out to clean the floors, so now she has her own! It may be a little big for her though as it is as tall as she is! She also got some new Sunday shoes but she got those earlier so she could wear them to church.


Cake time!!! Abbi was not shy to dig right in as soon as the cake was set down in front of her. Notice the cake free face in this picture...it doesn't stay like that for long.


Woops! She dropped some cake and is looking for it. She doesn't want to waste a bit!


The cake face progression...getting more on there


And more...


Working to get a good handful to try and stuff into her mouth.


And let the stuffing commence!


The end product! She absolutely loved the cake! She looks like she has a cake beard! After this we ran off to the tub and did a quick wash. It was hilarious to watch. She was in heaven with the cake, however bedtime didn't come till 9:30 as it was a little more difficult than usual to get her to wind down. I wonder why???

Love the cake face. I wish I could get away with that. The vacuum must be a universal cause Grandam got one for Cole and he and Grant both have loved playing with it everytime the real one gets pulled out of the closet.

Great to see the pics, she is a cutey and growing fast.
