We are finalizing all the plans for Holland's first birthday party. I have a conference to go to next week so Kirk and Holland are going with. We are going down a day early and taking her to the Ft Worth Zoo. She loves animals and I think she will enjoy it. We will play it by ear as to how long we stay. I think she will be okay, though. She gets in her stroller and is great for hours. As long as she is moving, she's content. We also have the coolest baby floaty that has toys hanging from it that we are going to try out at the hotel pool. She loves water and bath time, so I hope she enjoys pool time. When we get back, we will have her birthday party. We are using baby's first birthday pastel zoo theme. So cute! We got everything from the hats to the highchair decorations. We even have an animal pinata that has streamers that you pull to get the candy out.
Holland is doing great! She's walking more and more, eats anything you put in front of her, she plays by herself for hours without anyone having to be around or entertaining her, and she is talking more. She says mama, dada, kitty kat, puppy, hi, bye, and says gra for grannie. She is also saying nana and papa to her sitter because that is what they are called. She plays patty cake and blows kisses. And talking about kisses........ man are they slobbery! She will surprise kiss you and leave your whole cheek wet. The best thing so far has been that she HAS NOT BEEN SICK! I thought as soon as she was born we would be in and out of the doctor's office for this and that. Nothing other than a little case of allergies a month ago. All we did was de-snot her and keep the humidifier around her and they cleared up. We haven't spent a single night apart from Holland. I guess after her 1st birthday, we might feel okay about letting her stay the night somewhere else. :)
We are very blessed!
