Lucy's Birthday Party

Lucy's birthday party was this past weekend.  The theme was Minnie Mouse.  She had so much fun celebrating with all her family and friends.

The "cake"

Opening a slew of presents.  She had lots of help which was good.  After opening the first present, she took the book that was in the present and plopped down on the couch to start looking at it.  We had to show her that there were many more to go.

Trying to blow out the birthday candles.  She wasn't successful, but when she had a cupcake the next day, and I let her try it again, she was able to blow it out.  It must have been all the pressure.

She preferred to eat the icing of the cupcake as opposed to the cupcake itself.

She hit everyone up to look at books with her.  First up, Eleni.

then Scott

and finally, Uncle Mark.  She usually will have nothing to do with Mark for some reason, but I think he found the key to her heart, reading a good book.

The best family picture we could get.  We did this at the end of the evening and Lucy was exhausted.  Next time, the family picture will be taken first.
