Froggie's Birthday Celebration

We celebrated Froggie's 1st birthday this weekend! We had a big party at Hubby's parent's house and had about 40 people join in on the fun! (We had done a big party when Big Brother turned 1 and decided it would be fair to do the same for Froggie.)
The day started off with Tumbling followed by picking up Panera for lunch before we stated to decorate for Froggie's party.

Cones!

Froggie has become a great spectator

What other kind of party would be fit for a Froggied Princess than a princess party? Here's a look around at some of the decorations.

The reason I haven't posted a blog since Wednesday!

LOVE the way they turned out!

Froggie had a blast opening presents and did really well until she opened the La La Loopsy doll our friends had gotten her, then she wanted nothing but the doll! She was blessed with a ton of gifts from our family and friends and will be one well dressed little girl this spring/summer!

Froggie's gifts, she was very blessed.

Can I get in here?

Big Brother decided to wear her tiara

Then he put it on me!

Then, the best part of any first birthday, it was time for cake! Froggie was really antsy and upset that she had to wait until the singing was over to enjoy her cake but she dug right in once it was on her tray!
It was a VERY busy day and it was a lot of fun! Froggie was bathed before guests started to leave and then once most had departed she fell asleep while my mom held her.

Cake!

Why can't I have this yet?

How should I do this?

All at once!

Check out that face! She didn't want to share!

Happy girl, covered in cake!

Oh the joy of cake!

All partied out!

Happy Birthday Froggie!

It's hard to believe that one year ago today we were 5 days away from Froggie's due date, she was STILL breech and we were at the hospital to try and turn her. If you want to read the rest of Froggie's birth story you can read it here or by using the tabs at the top of the page.

We decided to make today special for Froggie even though her party isn't until next weekend. Big Brother had tumbling this morning and we got there a little early so we let Froggie walk and crawl around. She took it upon herself to decide today was the day she wanted to really put forth effort to walk by herself and kept walking out towards the big kids.

Walking and watching the big kids

After driving around to order food and cake for next week we headed to the mall and the kids played in the play area for little bit while we waited for Hubby to be done working. Froggie doesn't normally get to play but today since she was feeling adventurous at tumbling I let her. She had a blast climbing on all of the toys and Big Brother would pick her up and cart her from one side to the other when he wanted to play with something different. I was a little nervous but Froggie didn't seem to mind and I figured as long as she was content with it that he could help.

We headed into The Children's Place for a few minutes while Hubby was on his way and picked out some great deals. My favorites being the fedora Big Brother picked out for himself and the Frozen t-shirt I snagged for $1.99 for Froggie! After a little more running around we headed into Build a Bear so that Froggie could pick out a new toy. As soon as we walked in the entrance she started pointing at all the stuffed animals. She became pretty excited about the My Little Ponies so we let her pick one to those. She did a good job and even worked on filling up the pony by herself. Big Brother wanted his own pony but we told him that since it was Froggie's birthday she was going to get a big stuffed animal and he could get a small one so after some discussion he decided to get Spike (the dragon from My Little Pony).

We went to Max and Erma's for dinner and decided to ask if they would do anything for Froggie for her birthday and they brought her out a pice of chocolate cake with a candle in it. She LOVED it! All of the people sitting near us and the servers kept coming by to see her eating her cake. She made a HUGE mess but she was so happy, it was worth it!
