She's (the) One

Happy birthday, Imogen! Little Miss Idgie had a wonderful first birthday yesterday. We had a gorgeous, warm day and hosted a little BBQ in our backyard for the occasion. Here is Elliot giving the birthday girl a hug.


Imogen had her first taste of birthday cake, a GF/CF creation that big brother could eat, too. Here is Elliot helping his little sister blow out her candle (Imogen managed to get her fingers in the icing, sneaky girl), and then mightily enjoying the cake which he had been waiting none too patiently for all day.



There was also much romping and bouncing in the backyard. Here are Imogen and Jasper going for a ride.


And of course there's no excuse like your granddaughter's first birthday to try out a really crazy outfit. Here is Papa Pat in his pink flamingo print ribbon shirt (Burning Man's over, you wacky man!).


And last but not least, here are the monthly sibling comparison photos for you. Here are Elliot and Imogen, both on their first birthdays.


Happy birthday, little girl! Now it's back to playing with all her new baby dolls. The best birthdays involve cake and dollies, I always say.

It's funny. I think this is the first comparison photo where I am seeing a real difference.

She's a thoughtful little one even when she is submerged in a sea of baby dolls.
