Has it been a year already? (at least it feels that long since the last time I did any blogging). Getting through January (and February for that matter) was a big struggle, and I know that it's due mostly to the weather. But it is finally April and things are looking up!
Taylor's 1st birthday was this week on March 29th!! The year has definitely gone by pretty fast. She has grown rapidly, although she was pretty huge to begin with. At a year old she is a spunky, fun kid, but a little timid. She still refuses to fully walk but she has been perfectly capable since at least 10 months old. She doesn't even like to ride in the swing at the park, and yet Sammy is on the big slide going down backwards head first! But she is very sweet and loves attention! She loves to put things on her head, yet she won't wear a headband and her hair is still so short people think she looks like a boy. oh well, I think this year will be a big one for her hair.
Last weekend we went down to Salem and had a birthday party for her with the Demcaks. She got her very own mini cake from Nana that was delicious. She took the huge frosting flower and stuffed it right in her face.
On Tuesday for her birthday, we ended up going to the new Pizza place in town that has an all you can eat buffet of pizza, salads, pasta, soup, desserts, and you can choose from a bunch of different themed rooms to eat in. Then there is another area for playing games, riding rides, and winning tickets for prizes. It was nice to go there and not have to worry about making food and a cake at home. Low stress for me! It's a really fun place to go, and it's now the second time we've gone! Mark and Tracee and Doreen came to our party too which was nice to celebrate with friends and family. Taylor made a big mess of herself by taking the plate of food, most of which was covered in chocolate cake and put it on her head smearing the chocolate and mandarin oranges all through her hair. Whaddya do, it was her birthday and she loved it! The only hard part was that she was sick and so she was a bit cranky. I found out the next day that she had a viral infection and got red spots all over her body. Poor kid to be sick on her birthday.
Happy birthday to our funny Tebow!
Wow! I can't believe she is already 1. I love her cute chubby cheeks! Looks like such a fun birthday party.
ReplyDeleteAwww, she is so adorable--I just love her to bits! Wish I could've been there to kiss those chubby cheeks happy birthday!
ReplyDeleteCrazy fast year. Happy birthday little Taylor! (And Mom!) Super cute little family! Do you hear a lot that she looks like Dave? I think she's a little Dave and Samantha's a little Katie. Glad it was a fun day, miss you guys!
