a Cupcake for my Cupcake

Here's pictures and a video from the "Princess' " birthday dinner. No, I didn't dress her up for the occasion, and no, I didn't give her chocolate. Honestly, I didn't want to have to worry about her staining something cute, and it ain't like she's gonna remember it or feel deprived. We'll save the messy chocolately fun for Mimi and the Hawkcrew to clean up in June! Oh, and we're getting use to our new camcorder, sorry for the jerky-jerkies. Also, you'll note my crazy-town mad-happy photo snapping going on in the background constantly. Sorry about that too, but it's my first child's birthday, so it's mandatory.

Note: You can kinda see it in these pictures, Eva's hair is getting curly! Too cute.


First taste...

...in this one she's saying, "yum."



Mummzie tried to show her Eva that it was ok to pick it up, but Eva was singularly focused.
"Mo' SUGAR NOW!"

She soon caught on to the "efficiency" however.

My child, ever delicate like a flower.

"What? That's all I get?"

"Cupcake didn't stand a chance, Mummzie. "
"More, please!"

And the birthday present:




Equally interested in the delightful dirt and sticks.


This picture cracks me up! Our one-legged child.

Happy birthday, kiddo.


Clearly we'll need to talk about modesty... maybe next year.

  1. Happy B-Day Little E!! Cute shots of the big moment :) And we can't wait for the chocolate version----B-Day, part 2 in Charlotte (with a necessarily "toned down" version of the Hawkins' usual celebratory song! We want her to enjoy the event, not be scared silly.)
    Hugs! Hugs! Hugs!

  3. Great pictures my friend.
    And our policy on chocolate is 'not till they're 2'.
