Today was Alice’s first birthday. It’s hard to believe that she’s been around a year already.
It was a fairly low excitement day. Alice doesn’t do the party scene so much. We all took a walk in the late afternoon, during which Charles pushed Alice’s baby-jogger. We opened presents in the early afternoon and had some cake after dinner. Alice received many nice presents and the same birthday card from both grandmothers.
Alice liked some of her toys, although her brothers liked them better. One of her presents was a little push wagon.

Alice quite liked it but Charles broke down in tears when we told him that Alice could take it away from him becuase it was her toy. Corwin and Charles also fought over some tumbling mat blocks that Alice got. At least it’s a sign that Alice might play with them even when she’s a bit older.
