Emma's First Birthday

I know, this year has gone by so fast. Now I am a big brother to a toddler instead of a baby and life has become rather busy because she has started to walk too, so I am constantly trying to keep her out of trouble. She wants to climb the stairs and even worse she wants to go back down them, so I am trying to teach her the going down backwards trick...it's not easy being a big brother I can tell you!

Look at my happy face Emma opening her cards

"No Emma you open the presents with your hands not your teeth!"

"See now you have paper in your mouth"

That's what Emma thought of her birthday pressies

Party Time! Here is Emma with daddy, her friend Spencer, and his mama

Nutella sanwiches and blueberries yum!

Here's one with Elia

Not sure what's going on here

Cake time

Emma doesn't look too sure about her first birthday cake

"that's it, eat the frosting it's the best bit anyway"

Spencer knew exactly what to do with his cake...what a mess

I don't know why I look so cross

It's my party and I'll cry if I want to
