The last half of Luella's birthday... FINALLY


I'm finally trying to get caught up on some blogging here. So I'm FINALLY getting to the last half of Luella's birthday. (I know, I'm SO behind!). And then I can get to other photos I need to post! I will probably have some posts out of order but all well. Instead of linking these to the dates that go along with her birthday posts I'm just putting them as the newest, so everyone doesn't have to wade through to see them. 
Since her cake was so tall we couldn't have in her high chair to sing happy birthday. So I had to hold her up!

She looked around at everyone and smiled as we sang "happy birthday"



For several days leading up to her birthday I had been working with her on blowing. She got it down really good. But when it came to blowing out her candle she didn't have any interest! She was more into wanting to pick at the frosting!

 I kept blowing softly on her cheek to get her to blow.


 Eating the frosting, haha! I don't blame her, it was yummy!

 So my other attempt at trying to get her to blow the candle was to blow on her pinwheel, which I had taught her to blow earlier in the week. But no, still didn't want to use her blowing skills on her candle!

 Atlas, Mommy begins to blow it out....

 Very. Slowly. To give her a chance to join in. (still eating that frosting!).


Yay!
