It was so nice of Uncle Dave to celebrate his birthday with Bella. Everyone sang happy birthday to him too.
Auntie Jenn and her family drove far just to see the birthday girl.
Auntie Lauren said these two were having a pizza date.
Uncle Dan wanted to see if he could hold two babies. Not a bad job!
Bella had her very own smash cake. At first she was unsure of what to do. She was very gentle and careful when she touched the cake. Daddy had to stick her hand in the cake.
From that point on, she could not stop eating the cake as you can tell by the evidence on her face.
Happy birthday, baby girl! You make our family complete. We love you so much!
The next day, Bella had a party with her relatives. Daddy set up the garage, so the kids could play and ride bikes. Here's a picture of the girls before the party started.
It's pretty funny the messaging Chinese bakeries put on a cake.
Uncle Albert has 3 boys. When he sees Bella he likes to hold and hug her since he doesn't have a girl.
Sebastian was the life of the party. He wanted to wear the hat and wouldn't take it off.
Thanks to everyone for coming to help Bella celebrate!
On Bella's actual birthday, Mommy took the day off to spend with her. Auntie Lilian was still on maternity leave, so she joined Bella for lunch at a Japanese restaurant. Baby Kalina was there too and she slept the entire time.
Bella was starting to feel under the weather, but Mommy had already decided to still take her out. Luckily she was still in a good mood. Who wants to sit at home on their birthday?
In honor of Bella's birthday the restaurant gave her a happy birthday hat and sang to her with a pineapple slice and a candle sitting on wasabi.
Later that evening, Bella went out again. Probably not the best idea. At that point she turned super cranky. Uncle Derek joined in on the dinner celebration. Bella did have a few bites of her spaghetti which is her favorite dish.
When she got home she got cupcakes for dessert.
At Bella's 1 year check-up, Dr. Mason said she had bronchitis. It wasn't severe, but still she was miserable and started waking up at night from the coughing. When Dr. Mason examined her, all she wanted to do was lay her head on his chest. Her weight dropped by a pound this visit. She didn't have much of an appetite when she was sick. Her weight is at the 33rd percentile. Dr. Mason checked Bella's gums. Still no signs of teeth. He said they will probably all come in at once in a few months.
Mommy is happy to report is Bella is on her way to feeling better. Hooray to that! She's back to her usual self. Eating everything in sight!
