Birthday Girl II

Well, it's official: Savannah's one today! As usual, she's her bright cheerful sunshine self!

Birthday Girl a.k.a. Hello Toddlerhood!

Well, Savannah's going to be a year old in a few days, and we've celebrated her very first birthday with a spaghetti dinner for close friends and family yesterday. What a blast! Grandmaman had made her a cool matching "I'm #1" banner and bib, and we decorated a dozen ladybug cupcakes in bright rainbow colours, as well as a butterfly cake for grande cousine Vanessa, who herself celebrated her lucky seventh birthday. The younger Morrises, Coutus and Tignanellis played party games, led by Jenna, and all got prizes and treats. Savannah totally enjoyed her red ladybug cupcake, tentatively sticking one little finger into it first, and then digging right in. She made the day! As usual, she was loads of fun, and in such a happy mood. Our bright cheerful sunshine!

1st Christmas

Savannah's 1st Christmas was awesome, and we all feel so privileged to have been able to share it with her. She had fun ripping paper and pulling bows. She started opening gifts right after Christmas Eve mass, as is traditional for the French-Canadian"reveillon". Then, it was sleep time, so part deux took place the next day. She got spoiled, as did we! Thanks to all!

Today, we checked the mailbox, and got a great surprise: Savannah's Canadian Citizenship card! So it's official (again!). Yay Savannah, our little Chinese French-Canadian girl!
