Baby's First Birthday Vlog ~ Prep + Celebrate with us!
Oh my, our little cutie turned one this year and we are thrilled to begin seeing more of her personality shine through. Our love language is quality time and we are generally more reserved so we decided to spend all weekend going out and enjoying experiences together rather than throwing your traditional birthday party. We live in San Antonio and hadn't had the opportunity to go to Sea Life yet so we took this opportunity. We also enjoyed some family time at Sea World and a few other of our favorites (such as Starbucks) 🥳
We did MUCH more together over the weekend but as mentioned before, our love language is quality time and instead of recording EVERYTHING, we wanted to share our time together and enjoy one another's presence. Here are a few clips for you 🥳

If I wanted to use the alphabets, would I use a 7 ounce package? Also, if there are leftovers, is it good to heat up the rest of it the next day? Would you get a good product the next day? As you can see, I have never made this before. Thank you.

    Thanks for sharing reality with a newborn. It‘s been the same with us, our boy didn‘t want to sleep at daytime, it was really difficult for me getting things done at home while my husband was at work. Btw, I think your little princess just wants to be close to you - as our boy still does at 9 yrs old and so he still sleeps at night with us ;-) I think you and your husband are a great team and do handle everything great!
