Baby V turned 1 year old today! We celebrated with a small party on Monday night with mommy, daddy and auntie Marilou. She took a while to get the hang of opening presents. At first the thought the the box or the paper were the present. But eventually she figured it out and enjoyed her new toys!
She is liking her new airplane toy and daddy is teaching her to make take off noises when it lifts out of the air.
Of course she also liked the box it came in.
After presents, it was time to get her in her chair and get ready to have cake. No bib needed, just shirt off and ready for cake!
She had 2 cakes. One was a DQ ice cream cake for the adults----- and her cake was called the "go bananas" cake found here.
I thought that since she does not currently eat extra sugar, this cake was perfect. I put some rubber ducks on it, she sure loves those. She got really messy, almost too messy for her to handle, and headed straight for the tub, again filled with lots of rubber ducks to end her night.
She can be seen in this video enjoying the present from mommy and daddy. Yes a box of kleenex. I read somewhere that one year olds love to play with the box. They were right. This provided her lots of entertainment this morning, until she began to really "eat" the paper. Then we had to abort the mission.
Successful first birthday I'd say!

LOVE IT!!!
Happy 1st Birthday Victoria... how has a year already gone by?!?
Love the cake recipe, it looks more or less like banana bread. Such a great idea. If Malina is anything like me she'll wake up asking for cake, and we definitely do not need to get her into that habit. Might 'go a little bananas' myself ; )
Miss you, love reading your posts and watching the videos. Hope to see you all soon.
xoxo Lisa.
Looks like Victoria had a wonderful birthday. Love the videos!
