Today was our sweet Kate's birthday party!
This was how she started t out, thanks to a half dose of Benadryl.
Grace greets Beth, Owen and Lauren.
Owen, Grandma, Mia, Sarah, Emmy, Shannon, Will, Scout, Suki and a tiny bit of Kate and Granny.

Ready to eat!
Mia, Suki, Will, Grace and Scout.
A sweet moment between Dad and Kate.
Feeding the barefoot birthday girl her meal.
Zach, PaPa, Dad and Kate gathered at the couch.
PaPa watches as Kate takes another crack at the stairs.
Marcia, Viviana and Grace.
Out comes the birthday cupcake! The candle extinguished twice on the way out to the table and finally I realized it was just foolishness to put an open flame near the girl anyway.
Kate examines the cake.
Taking a bit of frosting.
I think this is when she starts to realize it's really all for her.
Taking a bite.
More of the rainbow-y-ness exposed.
A bigger chomp.
Even bigger!
The results at her feet.
Lauren is after a jiggler.
Now it's just smashing time.
Granny takes a photo of Kate.
This photo was really all about Suki...
...she was being so cute, trying to reach the rainbow fruit platter.
A goodbye for Suki. She and Grandma had many laughs today.
These babies crack me up. Here, Kate laughs with her friend Vivana. I could not resist this one, their faces are too funny!
Viviana is shocked by Kate's shoe mouth and messy shirt.
A last photo with Granny and PaPa.
After all of our guests had gone, we opened some fun gifts. When Kate was born, the song playing in the OR was Paul Simon's Kodachrome -- it was partly why we wanted a party with lots of bright colors. We are so glad to celebrate a year with our Katiekins.
