Cease the rioting

Ok. Matt claims that there will be a 'cyber riot' if I don't post pics from Eliana's birthday because my imaginary friends are 'clamoring' to see the pictures.


Banana birthday breakfast


Look at this face!


Dancing with her Dad


Checking out the artisan booths with her Ma


First carousel ride!


Playing at the mall playground


She loved all of the other kids around


Eliana's first taste of ice cream!


Dinner at our favorite Indian restaurant...



where they brought Eliana (and Elmo) a piece of chocolate cake! She had her first taste of chocolate for her birthday!


Then we met the grandparents at Cold Stone Creamery for a little more ice cream, some presents, and this ridiculous hat


This push-toy was her big gift from Matt and me. It's noisy, so she loves it.


The next day we had a playdate with Joseph


and did a lot of napping. It's tough being such a party girl!

And, if this celebration wasn't enough... the family birthday party is this weekend.
Hooray!
