So Ryan's family has a tradition that they celebrate everyone's birthday together every year. They do this by having a group birthday party once a quarter for everyone that had a birthday, or will have, in that particular quarter of the year. This weekend we celebrated the 2nd and 3rd quarter birthdays at Great Aunt Nan's house. That means... you guessed it! It was our first opportunity to celebrate a birthday for Reece!!!
Even though her birthday is not for another four weeks... We got the party started early!
Here is Reece getting a first look at the Birthday cake. As you can see she was quite impressed, and ready to dig in.
This next picture was taken as we were singing happy birthday to everyone. Reece wasn't quite sure why her cousins decided to lean in and try to blow out her candle... Lol.
Now it's time for the good stuff! Reece has been a big chocolate fan for quite a while!
But just like her mommy, Reece' favorite is Ice-cream!
Here is Reece wearing one of her gifts. Karen and Donald gave her a night gown, and it has a matching gown to put on her baby doll. Since she doesn't have a baby doll we put the gown on "her" teddy bear. The quotations are because this bear was actually mine (Alisha) until a few days ago. I have had this teddy bear for a VERY long time, and I slept with it every night until the day I got married (no laughing needed). Reece has now decided it is hers, and since I love her SO much... I gave it to her.
This is one of her other favorite new gifts. It is a mini water-bottle just like mommy and daddy have. She loves to drink out of our water bottles better than her own sippy cups, so Nonni got Reece her very own CamelBak! She LOVES it!
Once again Thank you for all of the great gifts! We feel so blessed, and love you all!!!
