A Birthday Review

We celebrated Allison's birthday on Saturday at my parents with my side of the family. We had ice cream sundaes and mega cupcakes. It was a very fun afternoon. Allison enjoyed playing with her cousins and learned how to play "Red Light, Green Light" (with a little help from mom). After her party we went out for pizza with Nana and Papa.

Allison enjoying her balloons.

Allison was eyeing all the treats on the table. Notice the spot on her shirt. It was stained before the party even started. M&Ms and a child that is teething isn't a good mix; you get multi-colored drool.

Allison wasn't too sure what to make out of people singing to her.

Finally, what she was waiting for all afternoon.

With a little help from Dad, Allison really enjoys the frosting.

Allison received many wonderful presents. Thank you to everyone for being so generous.

Even Amelia enjoyed the party.

Party number two. On Sunday, Brian's parents and sister came over for cake and ice cream. Prior to her party, Allison spent the morning playing with her new toys. Her special birthday meal was chicken nuggets and apple slices at McDonalds.

She received many more wonderful gifts. Aunt Cheryl and Uncle Dale, thank you for the Little People Farm set. She loves it. We missed you at the party.

I got up from the table to get the camera and it didn't even take a second before Allison went for my ice cream. She loves eating off my plate.

Allison doing "cheers" with Grandma and Grandpa. She loves clinking glasses with people and saying "cheers' but it comes out more like "chees." It is so sweet.

Thank you to everyone who helped make her birthday so special.
