Birthday celebration

We took a lot of pictures for Mead's birthday, so pardon the focus on our youngest for a few posts. First off, here's Mead enjoying her birthday "cupcake," which was actually a blueberry muffin.

The anticipation... what is this flaming thing coming my way?

Mead was dangerously curious of the candle, so we had to keep her little fingers away from the flame and the hot wick.

In trying not to overload her with too much sugar, I decided to avoid the full-out cake and icing experience. That will come next year!

This year she had a blast gobbling down her first big muffin.

Yay for blueberry muffins!

Are you sure I'm all done? Can I fit any more in my mouth?
