On Tuesday, March 11, Selah celebrated her first birthday. Wearing a shirt that said, "Birthday Girl," we had her party at our house and about 25 friends came. Selah looked so cute in her hair bow. Since she has had to wear the helmet, everybody commented on her headful of hair. By the way, we are DONE with the helmet! Thank the Lord! The week before her birthday we had the last appointment and also saw an eye specialist for children in Glendale and he said her eyesight is perfect, which we are so thankful for.
The night before her party, the kids plus their friend Lily helped me start the cake. We made a yellow cake in a 1/2 sheet cake pan. I froze it that night and next morning put it on the tray and topped it with a cream cheese pudding mix, crushed pineapple, and whipped cream. It was yummy!
Our friend Ida Larson bought the candles. The one on the left is a musical flower candle, and after I lit it, it looked like a sparkler, then each little candle lit and it spin around while singing "Happy Birthday." We all joined in with the candle, and it was so cute. By the way--the candle (which is now outside) is STILL making the music! We are wanting to see how long it lasts. It even got rained on a few nights ago but is still going. :)
Selah LOVED her cake...she had two pieces. She didn't even get messy and got all her cake in her mouth. Everyone was pretty impressed.
Daddy helped Selah open all her gifts. She sweetly sat on his lap the whole time for gifts. Tim for fun wore her hat, which made us all giggle. It was a fun party, and thank you to all our loving family and friends who showered our Selah with such love.
