My First Field Trip

I took my first field trip to the Children's Museum in Wilmington with Carrie and her mom last week. It was so much fun that Mommy and Daddy took me again this week. I loved seeing kids my size and playing with all new types of toys.

I could hardly wait to get inside...
This is right after we got there and I was starting to walk around. They had a real size shark and I walked right up to touch it...this is pretty cool...

They also had this board where you put all these magnets on it...

Then they announced they were starting the "edible finger painting"...good thing I had been practicing!
I knew exactly what to do with those paints...I even had my "painters smock" on...

Carrie helped me just a little from putting it in my mouth...hey they said it was edible!

I am a princess and this is my chair...how cute am i?

After finger painting we moved to another room where they had a big box full of beans and dinosaurs...I mainly liked squishing the beans in between my fingers...
This is two videos of me playing with the beans and throwing them all over the floor...I had a blast!

Then we moved on to the trains and track...I loved picking up the trains and making them run down the course...We moved on to the strictly toddler area where I played and played...man this place keeps getting bigger and bigger with more and more toys...I could play all day! Who needs a nap?

After the museum we went out to eat in downtown Wilmington...I was such a good little girl!

On the way back from my field trip, I tried staying awake but I passed out on the way back from all the fun...

My First Birthday

On Sunday, Mommy and Daddy threw me the best birthday party ever! We had lots of cake, (I had my very own) amazing food (too bad I'm still too small to eat it) and some great friends! Here are some of the pictures from the party...

Mommy and I with my big cake for all my friends that came to the party...

Here I am with my personalized birthday hat...I liked it for a little while then figured out how to take it off and liked that game much better.
How cute am I with my hat on? Plus Mommy had the banner made behind me just for my birthday...

This is me with my personal birthday cake! I wasn't exactly sure how to eat it and and not sure I like it as much as mac-n-cheese!

Giggles for birthday cake!

After eating a little bit I started trying to throw it on the ground and play with it...

After I finished with my cake...with a piece of the pink boa off my birthday hat...

Some of my friends at the party...boy I got some great presents...

Me and my daddy during my party...I love you daddy!
Mommy was being silly and put on my hat...Mommy hung up my finger painting I did on my birthday with Carrie...It says "Happy 1st Birthday Bella."
Thanks to everyone who came to my party and helped me celebrate the big #1. It was the perfect party for a princess...but hey...if the tiara fits right?

My One Year Old Photoshoot

On my first birthday, Carrie dressed me up and took some photos of me in my cupcake dress. Here are a few of the photos from my photoshoot...
