Oh what a day! Today was Maya's 1st birthday party! Instead of cooking, we had a family cater it with a mexican carne asada stand. I told them the party started at noon, so they could start serving at 1pm. As 1pm was approaching and no one had arrived, I figured I'd better check the invitation. The party started at 2:00! I couldn't believe I got the time wrong...I planned the party!
While we were waiting for the party to actually start, Maya's birthday gift from Pop-Pop Dennis and Fran arrived, which was her 1st doll house. We let her open the gifts from Grandma Bonnie and Pop-Pop Jon early, which was furniture and more people for her doll house. She just LOVED it!
She also likes to clean things with baby wipes, so she got one out and cleaned her new doll house. HAHA!
Maya and Molly each wanted the lamp. I'm not sure why that was both babies favorite part.
Oh, these two are going to be trouble! Cousins plotting their sneaky little plans.
Playing together with Maya's new doll house.
Maya wasn't as into her birthday cake today as she was on her actual birthday, but she still did get covered in pink icing.
Sophia was able to swing all by herself for the very first time. She did a great job and we were so proud of her! (She also ran around the party with birthday ribbon in her hair.)
I found Sophia trying to hide Jelly Belly's and eat them. :)
Here is part of the backyard before the party. Sophia and I made tissue paper flowers, which I put in bouquets in orange and yellow tall ice cream "bowls". I put Jelly Belly's in matching ice cream dishes that were on a stem. The tables also had little blue, green and orange candles, red chili pepper necklaces and mini maracas.
The sun light was awful for photos during the party, so most didn't turn out well. This pre-party photo showed the setup the best.
