Can't believe my little Elizabeth is ONE year old already! Hard to imagine that she was a tiny newborn last summer, this has definitely been the fastest year of my life so far. Since we were planning on trip to Disneyland with Grandma on Sunday and Monday (Lizzy's actual birthday) we did a small celebration at home on Saturday with Auntie JuJu.

| See food, open mouth. Classic Lizzy. |
Big sister Annie was nice to help Elizabeth open her presents, and then claim them as her own.
Just a few more pictures of the birthday girl :)

Lizzy's new trick: fish face

On Sunday Grandma arrived and we headed down to Disneyland for the night. We took in a few attractions at California Adventure that night and returned the next morning for Disneyland.

| Sisters ready for a day at the park! |
We hit the jackpot and had a Minnie Mouse sighting as soon as entering the park on Monday morning! Annie has NO fear when it comes to characters.
The day turned out to be very hot and crowded, and I don't think poor Lizzy had a very good time on her first birthday. I don't think we'll be back to DL until the temperatures get a little cooler and the crowds thin out in the fall.
Joe had to head out of town the next day for a quick trip to Japan, but luckily Grandma was in town for a week to help us out! We had lots of fun visiting the zoo and Kidspace Museum in Pasadena.
 |
| Annie would spend ALL day at the petting zoo if I let her! She was lying on top of the goats at one point saying "I love him so much!" |

| Having fun in the toddler room at Kidspace! |

Hope to have more exciting adventures to share soon!
