The big 1st birthday party

I always seem to apologize for the time between my blog posts, this time is no different.  Blogging is a bit difficult with no internet in the house, but don't you worry, it's back.  Boy do I have a lot to catch up on.  Since the last post we have enjoyed so many things, Christmas, Maude's big birthday and so many other things.  I thought I would start with Maude's big day.  She turned one on Jan 10th.  The actual birthday was pretty low key. Jacob & I both worked and Maude didn't really know what was going on, so we had the big party the Sat after her birthday.  She loves her some Mickey Mouse Clubhouse so we went with a Mickey theme.  From the Mickey shaped pasta to the cake, we had it all covered.  Sorry about the pic overload, but I had to post them all.

 The cake...my mom's friend made for us


 Cupcakes(more on my skill level)

 Maude's smash cake

 The decorations





 My favorite, the birthday banner.  A picture from each month. I couldn't take it down so it stayed up until June.  Even then I had a hard time.  

 Such a cute birthday girl 




Not quite sure why everyone was singing.























She liked sharing her cake...we had more on our faces than she did on hers.









When she was done, she decided she didn't like her hands messy.

It's hard to believe our little 3lb baby girl is 1 already.  The year went by so quickly(minus the colic-that seemed to last forever!)
