Happy Birthday Sailor!

Friday, August 22, 2008 Sailor's 1st birthday.

Joe and I both took the day off to play with Sailor. We began the day giving her, her two presents from us. She loved them both. A slide and her "Anywhere Chair". She crawled right over to her chair, climbed in and sat down. She didn't want to get up. She knew exactly what to do with her slide. We think she likes to climb up as much as slide down. She is definitely a little dare devil.

Pretty comfy! And just my size!

After playing for a while at home, we headed to the park for a picnic. Sailor loves to feed the ducks, we love the ducks but those geese are a little too aggressive!

Sailor loves to ride on daddy's shoulders!

After the park, Sailor got a visit from Granny who brought her a birthday doll that sings and gift certificate so we can go shopping! Friday evening Sailor, Joe and I along with Nana, Pop, Uncle Bruce, Aunt Heather, Peyton, Colton and GrannyFran and Granddaddy went for a boat ride and out to eat at Arrow Head Restaurant. We all had a great time as usual but this ride was extra special. Sailor even got to meet "Sailor the dog" on the way home.

This is the life, huh Peyt!

After the boat ride we all ended up at Nana and Pop's. Heather, Bruce and the kids and Nana and Pop decided to go ahead and give Sailor her presents on her actual birthday instead of waiting till her party.

Sailor with her boots and her boat. I think the boots were definitely a hit, Sailor had seen them and fell in love with them earlier at Carrie's shop and Aunt Heather went back for them. The boat is Vintage, but in mint condition. It has been discontinued from Little Tikes and Heather found one in Michigan on EBay and convinced the seller to ship it. Thanks Heather for going to all that trouble I think she already loves her's as much as Peyton did his! Heather, Bruce, Peyton and Colton also got her a My first baby Madam Alexander doll, A my first purse filled with goodies and even a cell phone, a book and a special pearl to go on her "Add a pearl necklace" that Heather has started for her.
Nana and Pop made Sailor a special playroom with a stroller and baby, baby style roadster, a bouncing zebra and a Neat and Tidy Cottage!

I think I needed the action mode on the camera!

We ended the night with a special treat that Peyton and Colton prepared for Sailor. A cake just for her but we all got a little sample!

I think it looks professional, Peyton and Colton may have a career on their hands!
How is it Colt?
I am not so sure about this!
Peyton has more in his hair than in his mouth!

Whew!!! A long post for a long day. Needless to say, Sailor had a great birthday and was worn out. Time to go rest up for another long day tomorrow...Party time!
