she didn't know what to think at first...
but after i helped her blow out the candle and handed over a cupcake, she acted like she'd been eating cupcakes for years...
i made a different set of cupcakes for her actual birthday last tuesday and let her have another one, and apparently she is not picky when it comes to sugar. vegetables, yes, but frosting, no. it was really cute watching her eat and at one point she just picked up the whole cupcake and tried to put it in her mouth. it ended up on her lap and lots and lots of crumbs on grandma's floor :)we were undecided whether we should get riley anything for her birthday, being that she is only 1 and doesn't know what birthdays are quite yet. however, i had my eye on this chair for a while and my dad ended up getting her the chair and we bought the slipcover. she loves it! it came just a few days ago and we are having a lot of fun with it. the only problem is, any new item that enters our 900 square foot house causes a major re-shuffle. we are still trying to figure out the best spot for it, so for now it's shoved in the corner next to her crib. she doesn't seem to mind though...

The cuteness! I love the first picture where you are all excited about helping to blow out the candles and Riley looks super skeptical...like she hates that cupcake. And then...the next picture...doesn't hate so much...
so funny!
Family parties are great!
I love Riley's expression in that first picture.
PS: Ella has those same leggings/pants : )
