Our little Miss Priss is one and I'm sitting here wondering where the time has gone?! Abby and I were heading to Utah for a friend's wedding on her birthday so in true Ryan form she got several birthday celebrations.
The night before the big day we had a little family celebration since we wouldn't all be together on her big day. I was feeling a little guilty that Marc had a big first birthday party and Abby wasn't going to have one so we invited the twins over for cake and ice cream.
She was less than thrilled with her first taste of cake. After lots of screaming and crying we got her out of the chair. The cake festivities lasted all of about 5 seconds.
The next day we flew to Utah. And boy did she perform for people on the plane. She was cute as can be (unusual for Abby + airplane rides) and she loved all the birthday attention she got. When we got to Mama and PawPaw's house she changed into her birthday dress (cousins Addie and Delaney wore it on their first birthdays) and we ate more cake. Yummy!
I love this picture of the three of them! Abby loved having the undivided attention of her grandparents and my cousins for a few days. She was so, so cute!
And I'm posting her cakes so you can see the difference. Above please notice the not-very-exciting grocery store cake I got Abby. And below please notice the birthday cake my mom got for her. When I opened the box I asked my mom if it was Abby's wedding day or her first birthday? She didn't think the joke was that funny. But the cake she got sure was yummy! I just told Abby not to get used to it--her wedding cake won't be nearly as fancy.
Thanks mom & dad for hosting us! And Happy Birthday little princess! We love you so much and are so grateful you are part of our little family.
