We skyped with the boys and they sang Happy Birthday to her and played all sorts of musical instruments. (They went with Grandma to Walmart and Buttered Noodles and bought some shakers and a little piano, etc.) Sarah LOVED to see them this time (last time she cried). She even picked up one of her balls that makes music when you shake it and was shaking it and holding it to the Ipod.
Here are the photos:

First Birthday Cake
Mama made a wish for her and helped her blow out the candles.

YUM!
Looking for more. She LOVED it and ate a huge slice of cake.
Considering one of the chocolate decorations
Oh yeah! This cake is delicious!
Sarah is showing interest already in learning English! We were not expecting this. It was the case with Aaron, but he was a year older than Sarah and was very, very verbal and articulate in Mandarin already. Sarah wants to learn the names of her body parts! She is fascinated with "eye" and is pointing to the eyes of her stuffed animals, dolls, herself, us and all of us in the photos we take. She lifted up her shirt, pointed to her belly button and looked at us inquisitively, until we gave the name. When we tell her a word in English, she does her best to repeat it.
