We celebrated this little one's birthday on the 14th since Daddy and big sister had scouts the night of her actual birthday. She didn't seem to mind too much.
Since Christmas was just a few weeks ago, Miriam was all practiced up on unwrapping presents and did a great job, more or less.
We started the night by having a little FHE about the attributes of Christ and what Christlike attributes birthday girl has like being happy, giving smiles, loving others, etc. It was a great and thoughtful lesson that Sean put together.
Next we watched this video I put together of pictures from Miriam's first year. Makes me cry. It went by so fast!
And next was presents!
She got a lot of great books - which are always a major hit in this house.
I cannot get enough of this cheeser face!
My little musician.
Sean and I worked on this activity board for Miriam. It was a fun project to work on together. It has all sorts of different locks on it, a light switch, wheel, color matching, weaving... It was so much fun to build. A lot of work, but the girls love it!
And then for the cake! I made this vanilla cake and it was amazing!
Little girl was fascinated by that candle. I held that one hand, but the other reached around the touched the flame. Oops. Awesome parenting right there.
That's alright, she was good once she got her hands on that cake.
Happy Birthday little one! We love you!
that activity board is awesome - you guys are awesome!
