Happy 1st Birthday, Gabriella! We celebrated today with the grandparents, all six of the grandparents. Grandma, Grandpa, Grammy, Grandad, Abuelita, and Abuelo were all in attendance! Gabriella has made huge strides in just the last couple of days. She is now wanting to be held by all of her grandparents! She is definitely a "people person". I'm finding that she LOVES to be the center of attention. As long as all eyes are on her, she's good. Gabriella had her own cake. I think it's the 1st time she's had this much simple sugar. She was on a sugar high for a good 45 minutes and I seriously would not have been surprised if she started running around the room she was so excited, until she finally crashed at 9:30pm. Here are some pictures.

Here's a picture of the spread before she dove in.
I'm showing off my skills.

What a nice birthday card. She's reading intently.
Look at all these cool presents!
I like the tags on the presents the best!
I'll post more later! I must get sleep.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY...WHAT A JOYOUS DAY!!
What a perfect 1st birthday!!! Mommy and Daddy made it so special for you and you liked every minute! I think we took at least 200 photos! Gabriella loved it, especially her very own cake! And we loved every minute just watching her! She has adjusted to her new environment is such a short time. She's not only beautiful, but brilliant. Of course this is coming from Grammy.
Happy Birthday Sweet Girl!!!! Hope that you enjoyed your birthday cake! Looking forward to meeting up with you and your parents in Chicago soon! ;)
