Coco has made one complete extra-uterine orbit of the sun! And Matt and I have survived (with only a few battle wounds) a year of parenting 3 small beings at the same time. Hooray for all of us! We had a lovely first birthday party for our tiny tinkerbelle. She flitted and flopped about in her glittery outfit, wooing the crowd left and right. The theme of the party was sparkle and shine and nothing says fun like a little glitter - which I may be finding in my house for the next eighteen years. Luke and Adrienne really "helped" assemble the party decor by putting their mark on the glitter filled balloons. I'm clearly not the only one in the family fond of those itty bitty shiny bits of papery metal. You would think by now that I would be able to anticipate how tempting a helium tank and confetti could be for the young folks but nope, no I did not anticipate competing with them for party supplies.
So our Coco was the star of the show, per usual and was spoiled, per usual. She sure is the apple of a lot of eyes. For the record books, here are some things she is doing these days:
walking, running, climbing stairs
dancing, a lot of dancing
spinning
says: hot, ball, dada, dora, baby
sleeps through the night but is easily awoken from naps (ahem, I wonder how that happens, Adrienne?)
likes playing with the play kitchen and doll house
favorite foods: toast, pasta, bananas, yogurt
We've truly enjoyed Coco's first year (who couldn't?!?!) and can't wait to watch her little personality emerge more and more.
