SMASH CUPCAKE. the first time k ever had anything remotely dessert like.

not happy that the cupcake is all gone.

keyas birthday started out with singing her favorite song (the keya sophia one) and ended with pizza, cupcakes, and wine (for the adults) ((and dexter for jake and i)). she woke up and knew something was special because we normally are grumpy when she wakes up and try to make her cuddle in bed with us while she points at the fan and flirts with it. this time, we came into her room with great fanfare and sang her happy birthday and came downstairs and it was all decorated! she loved the balloons and then she had a photoshoot with her main squeeze The Bear wearing MY first birthday dress that my parents saved for 29 years (which barely fit her). after that, she napped and then got to eat all her favorite foods and i went shopping while aaji and ajoba babysat (her birthday is kind of my day too right - i mean i had to go through major surgery to get that sucker out and hello, i became a mom!). then we came home and jakey bought her roses for her birthday which she wasnt really interested in and then her favorite cousins roro and lolo came over with aunt jen and grandma and grandpa! aunt jen and rowan and laurel flew all the way from seattle to celebrate keyas big day and they had fun gossiping and hanging out and doing fun cousin things like ignoring each other and trying to go for the same toys and ignoring little lolo (who we got to see for the first time, what a cute little ball!). then we sang birthday songs and keya got to eat her first cupcake and we had pizza and it was just OH SO FUN. BEING ONE IS AWESOME GUYS. IT REALLY IS.
