My first birthday

Hi, Here we are with the next story. :-) It`ll be about my first birthday, which we celebrated on 17th December. Thank you for the cute birthday cards we got from the relatives and friends. :-)

It was a nice day. As it had been snowing all night long, our house looked even more fantastic. Look at the photos! Deep snow everywhere... The temperature was below -10 degrees C.

Here I am, the FRUIT of my parents` love. :-) This year has passed so quickly... Last year I was still in Mummy`s tommy... And now? I`m walking around my parents...
I was looking forward to my first birthday. I was curious how we would celebrate it and what kind of presents I would get.

In the morning (17th DEC) Mummy made me wear some nice clothes. Willy! Can you remember them? Now I`m big enough to wear them. :-) /Then Uncle Peter and Oma Beppie joined us and put the nicely-wrapped presents around me.

I unwrapped them one by one, although sometimes I had to ask for some adult`s help.

Then I happily played with my new toys and the colourful books. I got Snowwhite and the 7 dwarves, educational wooden toys, puzzles, DVDs, some clothes, ... Thank you for the nice presents again! It`s great to be the youngest in the family!!! I get lots of love, attention and presents!

After the morning celebration I was out in the fresh air for a while.

At around 5 in the afternoon my real birthday party started. Mummy and Daddy prepared some pink and white balloons; it was fun playing with them. Oh, and my clothes were changed...

All of a sudden I noticed my cake with a candle and fireworks and also some presents on the table.

My parents ordered me this cute, hen-shaped, cottage cheese cake for my first birthday.

I was really fascinated by watching the fireworks. It was fantastic!!! Meanwhile we were listening to a nice CD with birthday songs.

After that I was allowed to open my presents; I got a nice pink towel with a hood and some books from my parents and some cute bathing toys from Peter.
Then Mummy cut some slices of cake for everybody. It turned out to be delicious!

After eating a slice of cake I burnt some calories with Oma; we danced together in the living room. Oh, it was so nice!!! In the background Peter was busy with the photos and videos he took during the day.

Here is a family (an extended family:-)) photo of us taken by Oma in the evening. Look at the dwarves on the piano. They are cute, aren`t they?
It was a nice day. We`ll always remember my first birthday.
That`s all for now. I`m back soon with the Xmas story, OK? Have a nice day/evening! Bye!
