Cel-e-brate good times

Although still a few days shy of officially turning one, we celebrated Trace and Alysse's milestone Saturday with our families. There were presents, more presents, pizza and the always anticipated birthday cake.


The pair received many great gifts, a couple of which I believe completed our collection of the entire Laugh & Learn line by Fisher Price. If there was ever a house which could produce a "best of" toy list, we've got it. The Fisher Price cookie jar with shape cut-outs seems to be Alysse's favorite gift and Trace has quite a fondness for the tool set he received.


Alysse was thrilled with the "Happy Birthday" singing, while Trace refused to sit in his highchair to enjoy cake and ice cream. Perhaps he'll be a bit more tolerant of our more intimate party of six on Tuesday when we celebrate their "real" birthday. Has it really been a year?
