At the last minute--and because they wanted an excuse to open a big bottle of bubbly--my parents decided to have a last-minute party for my first birthday.
My mom made me two cakes!

At first I wasn't sure why they set up my chair outside, or why they offered me a plate of food that was 100 times larger than myusual portion!

Clapping with cake on my hands was particularly fun...
I kind of like this birthday thing!
