Disco Birthday and a Big First Step

After the votes were tallied, we ignored them (we expect there to be more opportunities in the future for cakes about books). Instead, we went with a disco ball cake, in honor of Eliza's dancing prowess.



The video below is a bit long with clips of presents and dancing before her birthday and clips of various activities on the day of her celebration in NC. If you make it to the end, there's a fun bonus clip for those of you that know Tammy's parents.




About a week after her birthday, Eliza navigated her first stair. While we should be worried that the stairs are no longer safe, we're just excited that she's finally developing some gross motor skills.



And yes, given the music from these videos, Eliza may someday think she turned 1 in the 1970's.
