Well, Carmen turned one today! I can't believe my baby is not a baby any more!! She is walking and saying Mama and Dada (and today Jeffrey said he was going to google something and she said googoo - now google is her first official word!). She also learnt to clap her hands today (sadly I have been trying to teach her this for months). For her birthday we had Grandma and Grandaddy over for lunch, then presents and then cake, which Carmen wolfed down. There is a very shaky (and long) video below of Carmen's first cake. There are some cute moments in it, but I definitely have to teach Grandma how to shoot a video (sorry Grandma!). Carmen loves her presents - she got a baby doll and pram, among other things, from her grandparents, and from us she got a bunch of musical instruments and some wooden puzzles. The weather has been lovely (cold but sunny), so we made the most of it and spent some time outside today too. It was a near perfect day - the only thing that would have made it better would have been having our away family and friends here too.

At 9:11am, a year to the minute! Happy birthday Carmie!
