adventures in auntying

[llywela]

I have fallen off the radar a bit lately - things have been slightly manic! But over the weekend my little niece celebrated her first birthday, so let us mark the occasion with a birthday post.

To celebrate, we gathered on Saturday at Cefn Mably farm park with a few small cousins, and Layla-May had her very first pony ride, petted animals and played on the swings and slide.


For the birthday itself, on Monday, we went out for a family meal, and Layla ran all over the restaurant making friends with everyone she met.


Then back at home, there was the ceremonial opening of presents, which was both very exciting and very overwhelming for a little one.


A tea party followed, and we learned that Layla-May really, really does not understand this whole 'singing Happy Birthday' thing, that's just weird! But she LOVES chocolate cake.

Happy birthday, Layla-May

Can't believe it's been a year already! How cute. Now she'll really grow like a weed from here! (Judging from my coworker's kid)

She's already really tall for her age! One day, she might even have hair...
