Happy B-day, Brynnie-Pie!

The bike was the highlight. She doesn't really understand birthdays yet, but we tried to make the day special for her by waking her up with the birthday song, chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast, 3 different types of rice for lunch (she is always asking to eat "wice"), and pizza ("pizzi, pizzi!") for dinner. And then of course cake and a few presents.

Speaking of presents, if anyone else has the same issue with their kids having birthdays right next to Christmas, we discovered that you can still spoil them thanks to the magical places of the D.I. and Savers. :) We got her a baby station with a high chair and bathtub and other stuff on it for $5, a humongous bag of giant legos for $4, and cool farm that makes noises and stuff for $3. With a little love and a whole lot of bleach, they look just like new! :)
