Tuesday the 18th was Tyree's 1st birthday! It is crazy to think that at this time last year I was a brand new mom, and now I have a 1 year old. It has been such a fun year. They say your life changes after you have a child, and yes it does. It takes a lot longer to get ready, and you have to take a ton more stuff everywhere you go. For those people who say your life ends, or you never get to do the same things anymore, they apparently don't know how to adapt. We still do all the same things Tyree just comes with us. She likes to go and do things, it doesn't really matter what it is as long as she can go. It amazes me how much she has grown and learned. She walks everywhere now. She jabbers, but the only real words are mom, dad, hi and bye. She waves when she says Hi and Bye. Tyree loves music, shoes, and animals. She knows which toys are Chichi's, and she will pick them up and try to give them to her, or throw the ball down the stairs for her to get.

 

So to celebrate her birthday we had cake and ice cream on Saturday with grandparents, great-grandparents, cousins, and friends. We were up to Grays Lake, since it is hunting season, so it was fun to have it outside. On Monday we had another little celebration for Cali, Gideon, Parker, and Uncle Ryan. They were unable to come up to Grays Lake. This time we had cupcakes and cheesecake. She got some great stuff, some clothes, toys, and of course her very first pink rope. Thanks to everyone.  I didn't get any pictures of her on her actual birthday, but trust me she looked so cute. She wore this darling outfit that Cali and the kids gave her the night before, and had her hair in piggy tails. We didn't do to much but hang around the house, then went to town to run some errands. She did however eat her first chicken nugget (actually she ate 2), and got her toenails painted for the first time. It was a great start to our week.
