Happy Birthday Gabbie

Gabbie turned one year old on December 4. We celebrated her birthday on the 5th because Kyle had to work on the actual day. She was super excited to see the presents and birthday cake. These pictures are in reverse order but we started out the night with lasagna for dinner. Then we had the cake and opened presents with Grandma and Grandpa Christensen.

Gabbie opening her first present. She needed her dads help. Notice both of their mouths, she is so much like him.

Gabbie is enjoying her cake. She was pretty hesitant about picking it up and eating it when she first saw it but then she realized that it was cake and she started chowing down.

Gabbie accidentally put her foot in the side of the cake and had frosting on her toes. Kyle thought it would be fun to make her eat it off.

Her beautiful cake. It was a two-layer cake that had strawberry filling in between the two layers.

Wearing her new pjs on her head for fun.
We loved celebrating Gabbie's birthday. It is hard to believe that a year has already gone by since she was born. It feels like yesterday that we were bringing our little girl home. We love you Gabbie!

I cannot get over her curls! She is growing into such a cute little girl! (she's always been cute... but wow... she's adorable!) That picture of dad is classic. I love that smile.

I miss your posts... keep them coming!
