Our girl turned one on a Friday - the perfect day for Mommy to take a day off of work and extend our weekend, making sure we celebrated her all weekend long!
We kicked off her birthday by revealing one big present to her before Daddy had to leave for work but saved the rest of her wrapped gifts for that evening after Daddy returned home...
She seemed to know immediately that those presents were for her though. ;)
After breakfast, we immediately took her outside to try it out! There was road construction going on near our house so she was equally entertained by the water table and all the big trucks and machinery nearby.
And she was sure to wave at all the workers that would drive or walk by! I will say it forever and ever... her wave is the cutest I've ever seen.
After morning nap and lunch, the boys and I took her to the pool so she could spend part of her birthday doing one of her favorite activities - floating the lazy river! And then after her afternoon nap and after Daddy returned from work, little miss got to open the rest of her presents from us. Her first puzzle, a Nike outfit, a special Mother Goose book... and her first Disney princess toy!
We then headed out for the evening, picking up her favorite supper (pizza!) and picnicking by the lake. We let her splash her feet in the water, get good and dirty in the sand, and show off her sweetness to all the people out walking and floating by. She's a show stopper, our girl. :)
It was a sweet and special night for just the four of us before her big party the next day, and I think our girl enjoyed spending her day eating all of her favorite things and seeing all of her favorite places!
