Happy First Birthday Anabelle!






This morning was a rough one at the Gornstein house. Emma started fussing about at 5 am. Mommy and Daddy aren't sure why. Both ladies decided to make sure everyone knew they were up at about 6:30. Breakfast was early and nothing seemed to make Emmalicious happy. Mommy didn't really know what to do with her. During playtime, Emma kept crawling over to Mommy and putting her head down and when Mommy left the room, she came back to find Emma lying down. Mommy put them down early, but they both fussed around and didn't sleep very long. Mommy played some more with Clara and Emma and fed them early. Emma has been trying to get out of her highchair for days and today, took her straps off- yes, she unsnapped one and removed herself and was standing up to turn around when Mommy had enough and took her out. Mommy put the ladies down for a npa at 11:50 or so and the slept until 1:15 ish.


Mommy loaded the ladies up and took them for a drive and headed to Anabelle's first birthday party. It was lots of fun. Clara and Emma got to try the "walkulator" and Clara loved riding on Adrian's shoulders (Anabelle's Daddy). Clara and Emma liked the pinata and loved the food that came out even more. They both tried a grape- a whole one, by accident and Mommy promptly took it out! It was so much fun!! Both ladies enjoyed vegetable dumplings, enough puffs to feed all toddlers worldwide (Emma says puff now) and some cheese, and oh yes, cake. Mommy decided that their snacking constituted a meal and brought them home, changed them, gave them milk and said goodnight! What a day.
