1 YEAR OLD!





Zuri is officially ONE YEAR OLD!  Some days I feel like it has been forever ago that she was born and yet others seem like it was so recently.  She is such an opinionated little girl.  I can say little girl now, right?  

Zuri had her first birthday party on the Saturday and she was so spoiled.  She got some great things.  Some of her favorites were the magnets for the fridge, so she can carry them around the house.  Her tent with tunnel.  Her leappad 2 (she actually likes playing with it, although she has no clue).  Oh and her bath toys she got, which make her happy, but I have already had issues getting her out of the tub and now it is even more difficult!  She got a few books, which we have added to our bedtime stories and then the clothes were my favorite things.

Her birthday party went great.  Although Zuri had opted for no nap before the party, which made for one tired baby after the party.  She loved getting to play with Grey and Asbhy.  She was chasing around Grey's new remote control truck for part of the time.  She enjoyed all the people that were there and had a good time.




My mom got her a delicious small cake.  Zuri thought it was so fun to just stick her hand in the cake.  Then after about 5 minutes she took a bite of what was on her hand and decided she loved the cake!






The setup and everything looked great.  I made a cookie cake for everyone else to eat, since I like cookies way more than cake.  It was so good.



A few more pictures from the day.....





She was out cold 5 minutes into the drive home..


Then later at home she played with her Leappad, while Pedro played with the Ipad.



Our house has been officially filled with child stuff.  It is EVERYWHERE.  We need a bigger house, just for her stuff!


On her actual birthday, Zuri woke in a bad mood.  I told her it was her birthday, but she didn't care.  She was a little happier when we went out to breakfast, she had a yummy pancake and then ate some of our food.  She doesn't seem to be loving milk, now that she is starting to have some.

After breakfast she took a nap and we had to go to Fort Morgan with Pedro because he needed to see the dr for his  back.  So she was fussy the whole way home and pretty much cried.  That was fun!

After another nap, we went out to dinner for her birthday and met my parents and Kurt, Dena and family.  By the end of dinner, she had decided she was done for the day.  Actually, her issue is that she wants to walk (with me holding her hands) around non stop and when we sit down she screams.

I postponed Zuri's doctors appointment because she has been sick for about 11 days with what started as the stomach flu and turned into a low grade fever and cold.  She still has a runny nose, but is feeling better.  This is a picture of how she was feeling two days before her birthday party!



I will do another post with Zuri's new abilities and likes and dislikes...
