Happy Birthday 1st Birthday Lilah - January 20th

We started my little pumpkin's first birthday with Oma & Opa making a big family breakfast for everyone. Here is Lilah with her sippy cup trying regular milk for the first time. I must say so far, she doesn't seem to crazy about it and would really rather just have juice in the cup.
Then we were off for the day. Lilah was treated to her first haircut. We went to a kiddie cut kind of place and she got to sit in a fun chair and hold Elmo and watch cartoons while they cut her hair. She didn't fret or even seem like she wanted to cry. She was rather inquisitive about the whole thing and enjoyed seeing herself in the mirror to admire her new "hair do."
Then Lilah enjoyed Lunch out on the town in Seattle with Mom & Dad after a morning of shopping. Mom & Dad bought her a really cute wooden playhouse to go in the backyard. She can't wait to get into it and run around.
Then it was back home to get ready for the birthday girl's party! We invited all the family plus our good friends the Yahn's out for Korean BBQ to celebrate our little one's big day. For those of you who've never had Korean food, its very fun to all sit around the big tables and cook your meat on a grill that's right at your table. We had 8 grown ups and 6 kids, we thought all the kids did really well.
Then back home after the party to open some gifts and wind down from a perfect first birthday. Thanks for all the gifts and cards everyone, I wish everybody could have been here to celebrate with us!
