happy first birthday - take one

yes, "take one". madelyn is going to have four (four) birthday celebrations for her first birthday. the first was yesterday with matt's parents, the second will be a family celebration next week on her actual birthday, the third will be in florida with my family, and the fourth will be her traditional birthday party with friends and neighbors at home.

since nana is here visiting i decided that it would be nice to go ahead and make a simple cake so that she could celebrate madelyn's first birthday in person. unfortunately, papa could not make the trip so i set up the Web cam so that he could see too.

the video is long (3 minutes) and there is a lot of talking and questions, but madelyn really got into the cake eating - actually a little too much! enjoy watching maddie enjoy her first cake ever. love.
