Happy first birthday to Brielle! This is
Brielle's birthday picture. Misty had all of us write a note to
Brielle about what we like about her. I wrote that I love her little hugs. She is great at hugs and gives lots of them. I know where to go when I want a hug!

Misty made a delicious birthday cake for
Brielle. We had cupcakes and she had her cute little cake.
Brielle especially loves the purple hippo on the right of the cake. She carries him around a lot. These animals are from the Noah's Ark set that she got for Christmas from her grandma
Waldram. When I saw that cake, I was just like
Adalei and could hardly wait to have some. It was a delicious oatmeal cake.
Brielle was clapping her hands and smiling while we sang happy birthday to her. Misty helped her blow out the candle. Then she opened her presents.
Brielle was really happy with her little piggy bank! It doesn't take much to make her happy.
Brielle was getting the hang of opening her presents.
Adalei was such a helpful sister without needing to be asked. I think
Adalei was having as much fun as
Brielle.

Just a cute picture of the happy family - Nate, Misty,
Brielle and
Adalei.
Brielle - the princess for the day! She was enjoying all the attention.

I gave
Brielle a stuffed hippo and a zoo book about a hippo. It seemed like a good gift because she loved to carry around the other little hippo. I am a very happy grandmother! This is my 2
nd granddaughter. I'm so happy she lives nearby.

I just had to include this picture with her cute little face! I'm not sure how to interpret her nonverbal communication but you can see from the cake that she was eating it and enjoying it very much.

One hand wasn't enough - she had to have both hands getting cake at the same time! She loved that cake! You'll notice that she didn't play with any of the toys. She definitely was focused on eating her yummy birthday cake.

I was amazed at how clean she stayed with her eating. She wasn't messy at all.

This was the picture of her first bite! Happy, happy birthday to
Brielle! I'm so happy I was able to attend and celebrate her first birthday with her!

What a wonderful mom and Grandma you are. I can tell you just love your family, every one of them. You have been a blogging machine the past few days. It's fun to see where you've been.
Take Care!

Can't believe she is already 1, too cute! I think she is definitely looking like Nate as she's getting older.
