Hi everyone! Here they are, at long last, photos from Alida's first birthday! I hope that they are worth the wait!!! Opening gifts from Oma and Opah, Uncle Joe, Aunt Maria and the kids, and Aunt T! Lots of fun toys and books and an awesome hat from miss Therese! Riding in her new car from grandma and grandpa! Playing peek-a-boo with dada :) First birthday cupcake! I think she liked it... ;) Having fun with cousin Lucas. That car sure is a hit Aunt T! Static!!! This isn't her bday, but she had a fun hairstyle after nap time and couldn't get enough of this straw! We love you all so much and wish that we could have been together to celebrate Alida's birthday! We hope that all is well and that you are enjoying a warm, sunny summer! Alida is walking all on her own now and keeping us on our toes. It truly is amazing how much these little ones change in a year! Oh, as a side note, Monday June 30th, is when we celebrate the anniversary...
