my baby turned one

Something happened between these two photo's. Can you spot it? In the picture above is my last day that I had a baby. I put my baby to bed and I woke up with a.....

One year old toddler. My birthday girl! She had such a great birthday party. Many people came over. It was such a fun day. This picture above is my favourite picture!

We started out our day with a phone call to Portugal so her birthmom M. could wish her baby girl a happy birthday. It was emotional for her, and myself. She tried it best to hold it together. And maybe, just maybe, if Terra realized I was calling Portugal she wouldn't have hung up the phone 3 TIMES!!!

This is the birthday cake that I made. The little pink Bear was Terra's cake that she got to eat. And since Joe and Manny's birthday is only two weeks later the each had two balloons that were their cake. We celebrated the 3 birthdays together.

Terra wasn't quite sure what to do with her cake when I first gave it to her. She just touched it for a little bit until I broke a piece off and put it in her mouth. Them she realized it was food.

And she ate it in no time! And of course she made a big cake mess, but that's what babies too! What I always too is take a picture of them the night before because it is going to be their last time they will ever be that age. My last pictures of my baby. :)
