Tiffani Thiessen and Brady Smith Celebrate Harper's First Birthday with a cake from The Solvang Bakery

Harper's First Birthday
featured in US Weekly with a cake from
The Solvang Bakery

Tiffani Theissen and Brady Smith planned a wonderful birthday celebration for their daughter, Harper's, First Birthday, with custom cupcakes and a special birthday cake just for Harper. The party was featured in the August 15th issue of US Weekly.

Harper it seems, shares the drive of her multitasking mom, who stars in USA's White Collar and co-runs baby furniture line PetitNest. 'Most kids start walking at about a year, but she was walking at 10 months,' raves Thiessen. 'She amazes me every day."
