Happy Birthday Malaki!! This year has been a blast and has flown by!
"I'm number 1!!"
Yes, this is the face of amazement! Dan Zanes books!!!
We gave Malaki the greatest Birthday party! We had balloons, balls, and bubbles. The atmosphere was perfect! Our yard was a paradise for a 1 year old. We also got Malaki's favorite foods. We had hummus, pita, dolmas, falafel, rice, and fruits and vegies of all sorts.
Nicole baked a really neat cake. It was a strawberry and blueberry coconut flour cake. It was really tastey. No sugar, no wheat, and no dairy. When Mandy brought the cake out, we all sang "happy birthday". He got really shy and snuggled mom. He quickly got over being shy, and grabbed and ate one of the berries.
He loves to share his food. He is sharing his strawberry with Kennedy.
Nicole also made a really neat "ice cream" It too was sugar and dairy free. It was a mango strawberry ice cream made with coconut milk. It seriously was amazing.
Cake and Ice Cream Time!!
When we sat him in his chair he laughed and laughed. He looked up at the balloons and laughed. He was also so excited to have a bite of his cake and ice cream.
He insistsed on feeding himself. As well as everyone within arms reach.
The party was great. We were so pleased that so many wonderful people came to celebrate our little Malaki.
After the party he was exhausted, and WAY excited to get into bed. Here he is when we took him into the bedroom. He rolled around and squealed with delight.
After about a half an hour of trying to sleep, we realized he was too wound up from the party. We decieded to relax with a stroll through the neighborhood with some left over pita. Here he is kicked back and relaxed. What a wonder way to end a magical day.
