Phew, we survived her first birthday! Better yet, so did she! There were more people around than Avery was used to and way too much going on, but she eventually warmed up to the crowd.
The cake, being the first time she’s had sugar, might’ve helped a little. Her cake was actually a pumpkin brownie recipe I used as a base but cut out some of the sugar called for and used stevia in place. This is what we served as dessert to our guests and no one said they didn’t like it, so that’s good, right?
We are still in recovery mode after the long weekend, so I’m cutting it short and just making this a photo dump of the big day. Enjoy!
Fun times indeed! Hoping to post a follow up with a quick summary of events and more photos of the fun Avery has been having with her new toys. Maybe she’ll even be walking by then. Hmmm, how long have I been saying that now???
Awe how sweet! She is precious. I hope you all enjoyed yourselves! My little Mr is turning one at the end of December. It goes by too fast 🙁
Thank you, she definitely is a precious girl dear to us both! Happy early birthday to your little guy!
What a cutie! We are almost at 7 months and it is whizzing by! 🙂
Thanks, Anna! At 7 months, you better start planning for the birthday now because, like you said, it’s whizzing by!
