Our little Julia turned 1. We had a nice little celebration here on her birthday and then had the extended family over for a party on the weekend.
The cake was not a smashing success, but Julia seemed to get some enjoyment out of it. Julia had fun but was a bit overwhelmed after a while. (Turns out not only was she getting some molars, but the beginning of a flu as well).
Kayla however, was quite the party girl. Thanks to all the generous folks out there, it was hard to tell who received more gifts, the birthday girl or her big sister.
Grandma flew out from Hawaii for the celebrations and was a super help to me especially when Julia really started feeling crummy. Grandma and Kayla got to have some special time together while Julia clung onto me.
