Turning 1 Year Old


Lily turned One on July 3rd!
Since its been almost 6 years since we've been through all of this,
 I am continually surprised at everything she can do!

A week or two before she turned one Lily began taking her first official steps!
Then a week or so after she turned one she really took off!
It's safe to say she's now walking!
Lily is also talking!
She can say "Uh-oh" (her first word)
"ishh" (fish)  "da" (dog)
"Go" "ohh"
and occasionally "baby"

She is wearing size 18 months and 4 diapers. 
She is completely off of formula and bottles.
(the only part that was difficult was the one before bed, 
I tried giving her a sippy cup instead and she would "yell" at me. 
so now she gets nothing at all)

At her Dr's appt on the 7th she
 weighed 20lbs 10oz (50%)
Length: 30" (75%)
and head 46.5cm (90%)
She had 4 shots, cried for a minute and then was calm by the time she was out the door. 

She loves blueberry waffles, apple sauce, mac N Cheese, Gerber fruit cookies, 
pasta, Gerber pasta pickups, PB crackers, banana's & when she's in the mood fruit cups. 

She loves daycare and is moving up to the Toddler class officially at the end of the month!
She went to that class for the day today and ate lunch at a table with the other bigger kids!

She loves playing with her big brother, playing in the living room with all her musical toys.
She likes things she can open and close and put blocks and balls into. Dancing
She also loves THROWING balls, reading books and splashing in the water.
Bath time is prob her favorite time of day. 
She goes to bed between 7-7:30pm and wakes up 6:30/7am. 
She takes 2 or 3 naps a day on weekends but at daycare its normally one poss two.
With her new class she will be napping on a cot and only 1x a day. 
(She prob wont be on a cot off the bat)

She's grown so much in the past year and we love every second of it!

Lily's First Birthday!

We decided to have Lily's First Birthday at a local park,
we were having a luau and decided it would be easier to accomplish outside of my house.
(Plus the kids could play on the playground)

We had sand buckets as the goodie bags along with lei's and fans.

We also had gummy fish, Sugar cookie starfish and chocolate shell and seahorse pops 
 My picture below came out horrible with my little point and shoot camera.
It was a picture of Lily by month

I forced kenn into carving a sea turtle watermelon 





We had a water table for the kids to play with Hawaiian duckies in

The coconut cake with pineapple filling below for the rest of us :)
 The first finger in...







After being cleaned up with GodMother Aunt Julia (who helped decorate the cookies and make the pops)
 Then back to the duck pond!

Even though Lily was diagnosed with her first double ear infections just days before her party she was all smiles that day! It was pretty hot but no rain! We were very lucky.
We feel so fortunate to have such amazing friends and family to drive all the way to spend the day with us!
