The Children's Museum





























Today we went to the Children's Museum! We had soooo much fun!! We were hoping it would not be that busy since the Texas Rodeo is here but........... we were wrong! LOL!

Since Rian is a walking champ we thought she would have fun walking around with other kids her age and have a blast with all the toys! Rian's favorite thing was the slide. It was the first thing she noticed and the first, middle and last thing we did!!! HAHA!!

I couldn't wait to get a picture of Rian in the adorable doll house they had so we walked her in there and put her on the chair and she threw a fit! She hated it and I never got my picture! :(

We were so proud her her, since she just started walking a few weeks ago we were shocked that she figured out how to walk up hill and up the stairs the first try!!!! Amazing! I think we have a brilliant child if I say so myself!!! LOL!

She walked up to many little babies and just stood "in their space" close and stared at them, then walked off! It was soooo funny!!!!

On the way to our car Mark and I bought ice cream from the ice cream man and I gave in and had her take a bite! She had 3 licks and she liked it! This would be the second sweet thing she has ever had. The first was her first birthday cupcake that she hated and wanted no part of!! LOL!

Rian's 1st Birthday Party!!!!!!












I know I am a little late! HA! I found this in the "draft" file and I guess I never posted it! Sorry!

Mark's family flew out for Rian's party! Rian's grandma Smith, Auntie Kelly and Kim, Uncle Tim and Mike came out the day after her party for 1 day! LOL! We were so glad they could come and for her celebration!! I wanted to keep it small so we invited family and a few friends. Her little friends were unable to make it so she was the only baby!! HAHA!!
I had a Valentines Day theme with hearts everywhere. I made heart shaped cupcakes and heart shaped mini pizzas. We had a great time!! Rian was spoiled! Thank you everyone for all the lovely gifts! Rian did a great job opening them herself!

Mark and I don't give Rian any sweets so her cupcake was the first sweets she has ever had. We were excited to get that famous messy face shot we all have on our first birthday but...... Rian had other ideas! She didn't like the cupcake!!!! Can you believe it??? I put a little on my finger so she could taste it and she spit it out!!!!! LOL!!! I guess that's a good thing~ We'll see how long that lasts!

Singing Happy Birthday was an emotional time for me. I started happy birthday and by the second "Happy Birthday" I lost it and started bawling!!! I cant believe my baby is 1 already!!!!!! Thank you everyone for helping me decorate and cook!! We were so happy to have so many people come to her special day!!!
