The Bug is One!

Yesterday was the Bug's first birthday. While she had no clue that it was her birthday, she had the best day ever!! We started the day opening presents, and then headed out to a nearby state park for a picnic by the beach. We'd never been to Sherwood Island before, and it's really nice. Plus, when we got there it was still completely empty so we were able to claim two picnic tables in the shade. Little Bug played all day long with her aunts, uncles, cousins and Pop Pop. She's getting very close to being able to walk, and she tottered all over the beach and the grass holding on to a finger or two. She was surprisingly uninterested in her cupcake; she made a face and spit out the one bite she took. After an afternoon nap, we went down to the pool for her first swim. She loved it, so it looks like we'll be spending a lot more time at the pool this summer! It really was the best day ever.
