It is so hard to truly grasp that our baby girl is one. It has been such an amazing year of discovery for all of us, from learning to hold her head up to attempting to walk, it has been fun to see her develop. We've had some chaotic moments (like the time we tried to first bath her, the time she pooped on me, the other time she pooped on me, etc) but she is a joy in every way and I cannot imagine life without her.
For her day we rented the soft playroom at the Chinquapin Recreation Center down the street. She joined her friends in the ball pit and on the slides. The menu included her favorite Chickfila nuggets and a spread of authentic Hawaiian cuisine thanks to Auntie Laura. For dessert, Adrian made some chocolate cupcakes and a baby cake for Valentina. She was definitely a fan of butter cream icing and chocolate cake. Her face was priceless. We expected her to be messier but she is a sophisticated baby girl and didn't go too crazy.
Thank you to all our friends that joined us. I'll post better pictures this evening but for now here are a few.
