Gracie turned 1 on February 28, 2016! We are so excited that we made it through a whole year with her. She is incredibly sweet, but also incredibly opinionated and will let you know when she doesn't like something. Because we were going to Elko in mid February for something else we decided to celebrate a little early with the Norton family so they could be a part of this special event.
Here is the birthday girl with her tiara. I think it's safe to say she liked it.
After presents, during which she got spoiled; a cloud pet, lots of new clothes, mickey mouse pizza set, and new shoes there was cake. We did cupcakes in Elko, but Gracie didn't seem to mind that it wasn't the size of a normal cake.
On her actual birthday we celebrated with the Peterson family at Sunday dinner. We did a rubber duck theme and it turned out pretty cute. Alden loves his sister and wanted to help decorate the cake. here he is mid decorating.
And here is the one year old in all her glory. She can't walk on her own just yet, but she crawls everywhere and pulls herself up on everything. She sleeps and eats great so no worries there and we are so blessed that her and her brother love each other so much.
The cake for Gracie and cupcakes for the rest of us.
Opening presents with help from her brother and Samantha. We got her this walker to help her gain balance and confidence to walk on her own.
And Grandma and Grandpa got her clothes and shoes.
And now the fun pictures of Gracie eating her cake. She didn't make much of a mess as all she wanted to eat was the marshmallows off the top, but she was adorable doing it.
Thanks for hanging in there for a year with us Gracie Clair hopefully next year won't be quite so hectic. Either way we can't wait to see how you grow and change.
