HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY, KATE!

Kate turned one today!

We had planned on sending Kate into Fenway with daddy to catch the first inning of opening day, but the game was postponed :-( . Maybe next year.

We had a small party for her tonight after dinner that included cupcakes and presents. We had the cupcakes decorated with her favorite things: Elmo, a cat, and a monkey (like her lovey, Butch). I think she enjoyed it all! She will do it all over again on Saturday with my family...

Her are some (OK- a lot) of pics of her 1st birthday! There are 2 videos at the end.

She loves Elmo! Wait 'til I let her start watching 'Sesame Street'!

Kate wouldn't wear her hat, but Steve did.

Loved her card from Grandma Marsha and Scott

Fun gift from Grandma Henny and Grandpa Reed

Hat card from daddy (she kept it on for about 3 seconds- longer than the one I tried to have her wear!)

Gift from Mom and Dad

Too cool, Kate

Gift from Daddy

A bird house!

A gift from Momma

A cat book! ( I have resigned to the fact Kate loves cats, not dogs...)

Kate chose the Elmo, mom and dad ate the monkey and the cat

Kate liked the frosting but wasn't crazy about the cake...she started taking fistfuls of it and loading it into Steve's hands!
