The birthday

My family has a tradition of having extremely drawn-out birthday celebrations - and our little Kaiah's has been no different!

Tuesday, March 1st my baby turned one year old!

Mom and Dad both had to work, so Kaiah spent the day with Aunt Kamie and Cousin Ari. She got to take up one of her new toys to play with, and Jer and I bought her "fun" food - toddler meal, apple juice, and some toddler cereal bars. Kamie planned a fun edible craft project, which Kai loved until she got the frosting on her feet! Our baby girl HATES to be dirty or anything fluffy/slimy.

When we got home, we played for a bit and then went to Pizza Factory for dinner. Kai loved sharing our breadsticks and ate her own cheese pizza!

Then we came home and let her break open her "new" Christmas toys - the ones that were too old for her at Christmas time. She loved each and everyone.

Finally, we went to Kneaders to get her a birthday cupcake. Being our little prissy girl, she didn't eat it at all because she didn't want to get her hands messy. Dad didn't mind doing her a solid by finishing it for her :)

Then off to bed in some new jammies!

Today we took her one year pictures and I think they are going to be amazing!

Tuesday is her doctor's appointment, so we will see then how her stats are.

And one week from today, next Saturday, is her birthday party! We can't wait to see everyone there!
