Today is her official half birthday but yesterday was her wonderful party. My sister goes all out on a theme and did not disappoint. It was a great day, a bit too hot for most of the guests, but the AC was on in the house for a quick cool off.
Some of the highlights were taking Chelsea's photo with her cake. Daddy wasn't doing too good of a job holding her back and she took a fistful of frosting right off the top. Thankfully we got it all off of her and none was ingested. She's just started eating baby food so a handful of frosting would not have been good. My sister's co-worker Kim, brought her twin sons Ernie and George who are 9 months old and quite a handful. They are super mobile, crawling and rolling, and walking if they have something to hold on. Chelsea just sat and stared at them, almost as if she was jealous. It was very cute watching her interact with other babies. She shares her toys very well.
The rest of the evening was spent chatting with friends and family. My mom's sister and husband were present and things quickly became a bragging contest. My Aunt Joan has a very loud personality but is super sensitive. My mom also doesn't know when to shut her mouth. Things got a bit awkward for a while, but thankfully the babies broke up the tension.
Today is a reunion with some girls from high school. We were all cheerleaders and this will be our 2nd gathering this year. It's great reconnecting with the girls and seeing how we've all changed in the 15 or so years since high school.
