Welcome to the Cutforth Family Blog. This blog provides insight into the lives of Dave, Shawnna and Kaitlyn Cutforth. Of course, since Kaitlyn is the newest (and cutest) member of our family, most of the focus is on her development and the fun things we do as parents.

Maddysen's 1st Birthday Party

On Saturday, Kaitlyn's friend Maddysen (daughter of our friends Daniella and Jeremy) had her 1 year birthday party. Of course, we were in attendance to partake in the fun. We had a nice BBQ lunch while the kids played in the pool - we decided not to throw Kaitlyn in. After hanging out for a bit, we all headed inside to watch Maddy open her huge mound of presents. Kaitlyn and the other kids had fun helping and playing with the gifts that were unwrapped.

Next, it was time for the all important first cake tasting. Maddy wasted no time digging into her cake and even ate a little bit of it. Once she got tired of poking at the top of her cake, she decided to lift the plate up and turn the whole thing upside down. Needless to say, quite a bit of cleanup was necessary, but it was fun to watch ;-) After a bit more playing, Maddy was super tired and it was time to call it a day.

Sunday was a pretty relaxing day. We started with a nice bike ride around our neighborhood and Kaitlyn seemed pretty tolerant of sitting in the bike trailer - more than last time. The rest of the day was filled with play time, nap time and watching the Olympics.
