Look who’s 1 today! And still cute.

This morning, we celebrated Elena’s birth with a small party in a park that has sand, water, community sand toys, and lots of kids who utilize such a great public space. I invited just a few families, all of whom have kids who are close in age to Elena and Sylvan. And I made a rockin’ cake (well, a few folks asked for the recipe, so I’ll take that as a good sign). And did you know that you can dye frosting with blueberries?

After cake, a nap, and changing into dry clothes, Miss E eats blueberries

Maybe it’s naptime for me now?
