For Michelle's birthday we got up early and got dressed in her birthday outfit.

She spent the whole morning playing with and chasing the puppies. Then cousin Clayton came over and had a play date. While they were playing the mommies made rainbow cupcakes and a small personal cake for Michelle to have after dinner that night.

Once Clayton left Michelle read some books and laid down for a short nap. After her nap we played outside for a bit and quickly realized that it was too hot! When we came back in we relaxed on the couch and watched a little bit of Monster's Inc. Daddy came home around 5:30 and took us out to eat at Chili's for Michelle's birthday dinner. Michelle had her favorite- Grilled Cheese! After dinner we came home and sang Happy Birthday. Michelle wasn't too sure how to eat her cake at first. We tried with a fork, then with just one finger, and eventually with both hands all the way in!

Daddy gave Michelle a bath while Mommy stayed and washed down the high chair. After her bath it was off to bed. Michelle had a great first birthday!
