Careful! That sucker’s got symmetric chompers…it’s _deadly_ now! (And lets out a big ol squeal of delight when dad jumps after getting his finger bitten.)

Muahaha…it’s a month away, and it’s gonna be fuuuun.

You see, Shayla has two little friends, all of whom have their first birthday within days of each other. The Reader’s Digest version of the day’s plans include three babies, a large plastic sheet and a chocolate cake in the middle of them. 😃

Back on topic, sort of… I don’t think we ever get over the desire to dive face first into a cake, but alas, society and the other people at the party tend to frown on that once we’re adults. I hope Baby Briston enjoys her cake while she can.

I’m making coffee right this minute, but I ain’t that cute. Take a million pictures and you’ll wish you had a million more after she is all grown up.

**Hal** , I love the pasta picture. We’ve been trying to get WhyBaby nice and messy for a picture like that, but she’s an underacheiver in the mess department (only when the camera’s out, unfortunately. She’s plenty messy other times, of course). She needs some lessons from your girl, obviously. This is the best we’ve gotten, with blueberry pie: [BlueberryBlueberryBlueberry!](http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/rhiannon_dreamsnake/detail?.dir=3e83re2&.dnm=7b37re2.jpg&.src=ph)

Ah! That’s awesome. I used to work doing children’s birthday parties, and you have no idea how many of those pictures are staged - kid just sits there like a deer in headlights, afraid to do the very thing he’s usually scolded for but now everyone wants to see, until finally Mom grabs a big hunk of frosting and smears it on his face. Glad you got the real thing.
