For Penny's first birthday we had a "P" party. It was a picnic in the park with PB&Js, pears, peaches, pineapples, and I made a huge "P" shaped cake. Everyone was supposed to dress up in something that started with P. Penny was a Picnic table.
This is the best pic I have of the headband I made for her, bummer that the top of the cupcake and the pie were missing by this point in the day...
We played "Pin the crown on the Princess" and "Pin the patch on the pirate"... I made the posters, I think they're pretty good.
Penny liked presents. And friends.
The "P" Cake was so big it was really hard to get a pic of the whole thing without a wide angle lense. Anyway it was so so fun.
Penny is the best. Happy birthday my sweet baby P.
Penny is so close to walking but she still has to hold at least one finger...
Dave downloaded Picasa onto our computer and its sweet because it's basically a simpler, dumbed-down photoshop. It has an effect that is supposed to make pics look like film. Did it work (in the pic below)? I can't tell... but I like it.
Of course, it's difficult to capture it on camera because whenever I pull the camera out she thinks it is 100% necessary to get her face as close to the lense as possible (that's breakfast on her face by the way). 
And whenever I am stationary for more than a few moments Penny thinks it is necessary to sit on my feet. 
She really wanted to play some b-ball with this guy:
SO CUTE!!!
