Birthday girl!

Nico had her 1st birthday party yesterday, and, wow, was it fun!! She had a blast seeing family and some of our close friends. She had pizza and cake for the first time (devoured both!) and two, count'em-- TWO!-- scoops of ice cream. Ah, the sweet sugar rush. . . and crash! She was a very tired (but so happy!) little girl by the end of the evening. Thanks to everyone who was able to be there!! We love you!
