::happy birthday o::

Exactly a year ago today, at 8:19 PM, our little O was born. It has been the most challenging, yet the best, year of our lives. Architectdad and I are very lucky to have her in our lives.

Needless to say, with her birthday and Christmas being so close together, she received A LOT of presents. From fabulous new clothes to amazing new toys...she has made out like a bandit!

However, I must mention my favorite. It was given to her by her great-uncle, a NASA PhD engineer. He gave her two terry cloth bibs that say: "Future NASA Astronaut" across the front. Functional and full of positive reinforcement. I like that.

Grandpa + Teta threw her a pre-birthday party. The Teletubbies birthday cake is unbelievable! Yes, my child loooves watching big, alien babies that speak in broken English. I'm actually okay with the whole purse-carrying business, though.

Architectdad and I threw her another party today and invited her playgroup pals. Good food and great company.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY LITTLE O!!!
