1 YEAR OLD!!!

Where, oh where did my little baby go??!! It seems like just yesterday we were driving up to our house with a teensy bundle of joy. Now I have a bona-fide toddler. Adan turned one Friday. To celebrate, Miguel and I brought him to Olive Garden for dinner. Why Olive Garden? Well, that is where Miguel and I went to dinner after we got married 11 years ago! We thought it'd be a good tradition to start. The waitresses came out and sang "Happy Birthday." He loved it!

On Saturday, a few of our friends came together to celebrate with a party just for Adan. We had pizza, popcorn, fruit and veges. It ended with a water-balloon fight (that was supposed to be for the kids, but of course men were involved, so we got the brunt of it.) I ended up in the pool thanks to Miguel. It was alot of fun, though but I thin k next year we're doing ChuckE.Cheese's! We still have the "Pearl River" party on Saturday!

Daddy and I got him a tee-ball set, a basketball goal, a soccer set, a sprinkler and a pool with a slide. Other gifts he got were:
A mower that blows bubbles
A penguin that has balls in it
A tee-ball set
A helicopter that makes real sounds, and says the ABCs
A dump truck
A book that talks
Bubbles
A pool floaty
Tub toys
A Nike outfit
An outside swing
Shoes
3 sippy cups
(we got the last three things with the gift card that Auntie Jess gave us)

We had sooo much fun!
