On the 15th, Brynn went to get her first birthday pictures taken. Here are a few from her photo session.
She also loved opening her birthday cards that came in the mail.
The week of Brynn's birthday we had real bad weather and so I didn't have school all week. I got to stay home and help Mommy prepare for Brynn's birthday party. On Thursday, Grandma and Grandpa Otteman arrived along with Grandma Kris, Deb Millwright and her girls Emily and Kayla. Here I am coloring with Emily.
Here's the birthday girl.
We had a birthday dinner and then celebrated with cupcakes.
After dinner, sissy opened her gifts from Mommy and Daddy. She got a new kitchen and a lamb.
The next morning, Mommy took sissy and I swimming at the hotel where Grandma Kris, Deb and the girls were staying.
While we were gone, Brynn's cakes were delivered. Her birthday cake matched her birthday invitations and decorations.
Here is her smash cake. A perfect ladybug with RED and BLACK frosting. What were my parents thinking?
We had lunch once everyone arrived and then opened presents. Sis got a lot of really great gifts.
Then it was time to sing Happy Birthday and dig into that ladybug cake.
Time for a bath!! Mommy said it was Daddy's turn.
Here is sissy with her Godmothers Emily and Kayla.
We had a great weekend with friends and family. It was so nice that everyone could come see us.After everyone left on Sunday, Mommy and Daddy took us to the Imagination Station in Toledo, OH. So much to see and do. We started out at the dino dig. Here we are searching for dinosaur bones.
We also hammered for fossils.
Then Daddy and Mommy took a turn riding a bike across the museum.
We had to find out which ball would go faster.
Then we went to the ball refinery. We would place balls in a slot and they would be sucked up into a tube. Hard hats are required in this area :)
Daddy and I did magnet clouds.
Then I played a harp.
And a piano.
My favorite was the grocery store. I had so much fun shopping for food and scanning the items.
Brynn enjoyed the slide. She went down several times.
I also drove an ambulance.
Here I am at the construction site.
I had fun playing in the water area. Brynn did also. She was soaked from head to toe. All the ducks got a "kiss" from her.
I had my last appointment for the nutritional study that I participated in on March 4th. They did my body fat measurements and another dexa scan. This scan measures the body fat in my entire body. Well, that's all for now. Mommy is planning on taking sissy and I to Iowa for a week and a half over Easter. We'd love to see everyone! I will leave you with a picture of Brynn and I playing in my tent. Daddy and I got to sleep in it over the weekend while Mommy was at work.
Until next time,
Luke William and Brynn Elyse
