Our little Lucy turned one last Tuesday, and we celebrated with a big Hello Kitty party on Saturday. She has no idea who Hello Kitty is, but I liked the plates so I bought them! Then from the design on the plates, I made her cake. That was fun! I really didn't want to cut into it, though. :o) Her party day was great weather, which made for good traveling for my family. Tyler's family came, so allll of Lucy's cousins were here, ready to dote on her. The girls always have fun together....there are 7 between Stacy's, Sara's, and ours. Then Drew who is Emily's age, just jumps right in and has a blast with them! 
Lucy indulged in her very own strawberry cupcake with pink icing. She shoved the cupcake right up to her mouth. The cupcake barely moved, but her mouth was moving, and the cupcake just began to disappear. At one point we wondered if she was breathing! She ate the entire thing without setting it down.
My family left after lunch on Sunday. Before they left, I got some good pictures of Lucy with Grandma Manning. It's hard to believe Lucy is one! She has gone from being so helpless and teeny, to a funny little thing that tries to say doggy and choo choo train, with such enthusiasm and a squeaky little voice. The day after her birthday she took her first step, and has been trying every chance she gets to do it again! It's so neat to hear Emily and Lucy laugh together, and hear that little chuckle. She has even been listening to books better all of the sudden. Her favorite is Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? I'm sure there will be lots more to brag about...I mean report here soon!

Totally loving the cake! Happy First Birthday Lucy! Ok, so help me out...how did you learn to decorate cakes? Is there a tutorial I can read online??? Hello Kitty looks awesome!
I love the cupcake picture. She just looks so completely serious about the whole thing. Don't mess with a gal and her cupcake, right?!
