By Polly's Mom, Special to the PollyBlog.Some people might say "I can't believe it's been a whole year," but honestly, that feels about right, because this child has changed so much. A year ago, Polly was a tiny squeaky thing and her parents anxiously recorded every feeding and the contents of every diaper. Now she eats nearly everything (and a lot of it), will barely hold still for a change of clothes, and seems to be just on the edge of really walking and talking.
Here, Polly enjoys a first taste of cake. She would have been much happier about the cake were it not an hour and a half past her usual bedtime - and yes, we tried putting a party hat on her for this photo, but she would have none of it.Thanks to Polly's aunt Amy, and our wonderful friends Russell, Courtenay, Charlotte, and Madeline for coming to share the day, and to all of you who sent birthday wishes from afar. And happy birthday, Polly. We adore you.

Happy birthday!
Happy belated birthday! I knew it was in the middle of March. And then was distracted by not celebrating St. Patrick's Day. But Polly's first birthday really isn't about me. It's about Polly, who is beginning to remind me ever so slightly of an extremely young Mia Farrow.
Thanks for the extended update! Very sweet (not that the pithy updates aren't night!). I can't believe it's been a year either. It seems like only yesterday that I was traipsing up to your loft very, very pregnant to hang out with you and tiny Polly! Happy birthday to Polly!
Oops. I can't type. Ignore the word "night"--I have no idea where it came from. Except for perhaps that it is nighttime and I'm much too tired.
Happy Birthday Polly! I can't believe it's been a year either! I too remember going up to your old place to hold a teeny baby Polly. Can't wait to see you guys again soon!
We need some updates! Polly's fans are restless.
very belated happy happy birthday Polly!
