Gloria's Birthday Party (part 2)

"I love birthday parties!"

Two weeks ago, on Saturday, January 31, we had a second "1st" birthday party for Gloria. This time it was at Grandpa and Grandma Vicki's house. The turn-out was awesome and we had a great time!

"What goodies are in here for me?"

"I have my very own chair now! I was so excited, I couldn't even take off all of the paper before I sat down."

"Plastic spoons and bowls! A baby can never have too many of those!"


"Great-Grandma Hettig gave me a musical bus to push and ride on. I like putting things under the seat and pushing all of the buttons to make music."

"Grandma and Poppa gave me a 4-wheeler. Watch out - here I come! I just press a button and wheeeeeeeee!"

"Mean ol' mommy put this hat on my head. I don't like it."
(But, she did like wearing it when we were at the store buying the plates and napkins for her party, so I thought she wouldn't mind wearing it at her party. Guess I was wrong.)

"Mommy made yummy angel food cupcakes and chocolate cupcakes in ice cream cones! Too bad she wouldn't let me try a chocolate one."

"Yum yum! My own cupcake to smush and smash!"

"Frosting on my fingers"

"Mmmm"

And, continuing what we started at her first "1st" birthday party, a group picture of everyone that helped us celebrate. I'm glad to see everyone brought their smiles along.

After the party was over and everyone went home, Gloria got snuggly in her jammies and played with her new toys for awhile before bed. We spent the night at Grandpa's house and Gloria had a ton of fun.

"My new chair fits me perfectly!"

"I'm playing in Grandma Vicki's bathtub - but where's the water?!"
