Bostyn turned 1 on December 29th! This year went by way too fast, we still can't believe how big she is getting.
Last ride in the baby car seat
Since we were waiting to celebrate her birthday party with family in Baker we had a small celebration at home on her actual birthday. Including a fun breakfast of pink chocolate chip pancakes.
Brooklyn was so excited to celebrate, she loves it when anyone has a birthday.
Brooklyn was tired of posing for pictures, Bostyn on the other hand loves it.
Brooklyn gave her a special birthday crown for her to wear, and of course to share.
She loved ripping open all of her birthday cards.
She especially loved finding the money inside, and carried it around with her.
After lunch we headed to an ice cream shop for a birthday treat. This was her first time riding in a big girl car seat.
They both thought it was pretty fun!
Waiting to order-this is the cutest ice cream parlor, all decorated like the 50's.
Bostyn loves, loves, loves ice cream.
Brooklyn got just what she wanted...a baby cone with sprinkles.
Then she shared our brownie sundae too. Delicious!
Momma and the birthday girl!
Then we went home and opened a few presents!
A couple of days later she got more presents in the mail.
A new hat from Great Grandma Wolfley,
and cute clothes from Grandma and Grandpa Merritt.
Brooklyn is my little baker. She loved making green and pink swirled cupcakes for the birthday party.
When we got to Baker, Bostyn got to open up even more presents!
Grandma and Papa Baxter gave her this fun tunnel and some other cute toys.
As tradition would have it, we all went to El Erradero for Bostyn's birthday dinner. She LOVES rice and beans!
I found a tutorial online on how to make a pinata out of a diaper box- I loved how it turned out.
Brooklyn was the first one to get a swing at it.
Bostyn wasn't a huge fan...
I think almost everyone took a turn whacking it, even Grandma!
Brooklyn decided that Bostyn needed to have a Minnie Mouse party, so Minnie it was.
I made Bostyn her own giant cupcake to dig in to.
Singing Happy Birthday!
I love how excited Brooklyn was to celebrate-love these guys.
Bostyn definitely didn't "dig-in" She was very cautious and careful when it came to this big cupcake....
Brooklyn of course loved it!
I can't believe my baby is one already!
This was the extent of her cake eating...she barely touched the frosting. Bostyn definitely doesn't like to get her hands dirty.
Even though she didn't eat much, she still looked cute sitting there and smiling!
Love this cute little girl.
