Happy Birthday Alyssa!!!




Alyssa had a great birthday on Saturday! Even though she didn't understand, she was excited and clapping all day all thanks to Bryson and Kaitlyn who were constantly singing to her and telling her it was her birthday. It was fun to watch! She loves her care bear walker toy. She is not into walking yet but loves to climb on and off it and dance to the music.

Then of course the first birthday eating of the chocolate cake. She started slow with just trying a little piece


then realized she liked it and decided to just grab the whole piece.



However she didn't follow in Kaitlyn's footsteps and eat every last piece plus lick the plate clean. She ate some bites, drank lots of milk and then tried to hand it to me (her way of saying she is done and if I don't come take it, it goes on the floor so I am always quick to respond)

Happy Birthday Alyssa!!!

Awww, Happy Birthday Alyssa!!! Cute pictures... and I think she starting to look more like you (though not quite as much like you as Kaitlyn).

I had to come see her birthday pictures. Hey is she a cutie??? but she didn't finish her CHOCOLATE cake - hmmmmmmmmm - what's wrong with her? (At least Kaitlyn and I will stick together)
P.S.The snowman pictures are really fun.

I'm with your Mom, Dacia, are you sure we're related? Didnt finish her chocolate cake? Maybe a visit to the doctor would be in order. Happy Birthday Alyssa! (We sure miss you guys.)

She is just too cute! She looks like both of your kids mixed together! I love how she just picked the whole piece of cake up! Classic! BTW, I love you new hair cut! I noticed it before I even read the caption.
