Happy Belated Birthday, Kid!

So, last Sunday, Feb. 18 we had a cool party for Noah in honour of the completion of her 1st official trip around the sun. Her actual birthday was Jan. 31; however, this was the first day that worked for all of her friends!

Rach wanted a balloon theme. So, I hung a whole lot of them around the house, Rach made a few dozen of cupcakes to look like a bunch of balloons, and we filled some with helium for Noah and her 2 baby-friends.

It was a blast! We had cake and homemade ice cream, thanks to the ice cream maker we received from Rachel's mom this Christmas. I pre-made 4 flavours:
rich chocolate coffee (amazing),
strawberry (unbelievable),
chocolate mint chip (fantastic), and
mango blueberry frozen yogurt sweetened with Splenda (garbage).

Anyway, here are some shots taken that afternoon. Some were taken on our old 3.1 megapixel camera. Some were taken on Jeff's new 1000 trillion megapixel SLR digital camera. Enjoy the cuteness and loveability of our daughter. I'm already living vicariously through her.
