One busy but also incredibly wonderful 1st year

From the first day of it...

with breakneck speed to their birthday. (Man, those make my heart do a great big huge, "awww" quiver every time I look at them.)


I wonder what is in there!

Hope it's not what SHE got, although, she looks pretty happy with that dolly.



Nope, thankfully mine goes "bmm, bmm".


A side note, those cute gifts were from my secret pal (anyone getting the idea that she must be wonderful?!) Steve and I did not get them a gift. Does that put us in your terrible parent book? That does not mean we went without celebrating with MUCH thanksgiving that we have all made it through this first year. We just had cupcakes instead of presents. Cara seemed a little disappointed that her PINK ones didn't make quite the same statement that Cody's blue ones did!


Hey, let me try some of that!

Obviously, though, a cupcake is delicious and fun no matter what the color.
