Before her birthday party was St. Patty's Day. Mama celebrated it with Julia by dying her milk green.
Green eggs, anyone?
Mmmm...delish!

Julia actual birthday, March 18th. No we didn't give her the whole cake! Just a tease...
But mama...I want MORE!!
We of course relented and gave her a yummy piece!
Now for her birthday party, which was held the Sat. after her birthday at Grandma and Grandpa Q's house. It was a jungle theme! (yes, mama was getting tired of pink)
Decorations...
More decorations...
The birthday girl, all dressed up and ready to party hardy!

Waiting patiently for the cake...
C'mon mom...where is it?!
The Jungle Cake!! This cake is actually a "Go, Diego, Go" cake, but mama put on her own figures to make it into a jungle theme. Note the smushed blue frosting on the bottom from a transport mishap in the car, but we improvised and made it look like the animals' fault. Hey...they were just tryin' to reach the Amazon! The monkey's almost there...
Ahhhh...finally!!
Phase 1 of "Operation Destroy Cake"
Reaching Phase 2...
"Operation Destroy Cake" has been successfully administered!! Victory!
Time for presents! She got many, many cute clothes...
Books...
A swing, an interactive Elmo, and much much much much more not pictured....
Party madness (note cousin Christopher playing nicely with Julia)
Julia, deciding she's had enough.
What a fantastic 1st birthday!!!! Thank you everyone!!!!
