Allison's First 1st Birthday Party

No, that is not a typo in the title... we celebrated Allison's 1st birthday twice! The first 1st birthday party took place last Wednesday with our families since Matthew and one set of grandparents were leaving town on Friday** before the big day. Little Ally got all dressed up in her pretty blue dress, got to open all of her presents from mommy & daddy, and got to play with her very own cupcake!

Here she is with Grandpa Nick & Grandma Ann

Q: How many grandparents does it take to light a candle?

The first touch!

After repeated whacking of the cupcake it was only slightly lopsided- impressive!

It's hard to see, but Ally is sitting on a new stool that was a gift from her great grandparents.

Oh the joy of a pink balloon!

She still doesn't like the hat at all unless she's distracted by cake.

**Ally's grandparents had to leave town before her big day because Ally's 1st cousin was born on Thursday! Welcome Jude Abram Small! Congrats Len & Melissa- can't wait to see you all!
