Fatticci Wedding

This past Friday Zach's cousin Meghan got married. Very beautiful wedding and we were all part of it! Audrina was a flower girl, I was a Bridemaid, and Zach was an usher. Audrina did amazing, and we all had a great time (but are exhausted and glad the crazy week has come to an end)!

I've been post lazy lately, so I'm posting quite a few pictures to make up for it.

Getting the 3 of of all posed for a picture is not an easy task! This is the best we could do.

She was not too amused with having to sit so long for the photographer, but she handled it pretty well.

One of her favorite positions - UpSide Down! ....she must be mine!

As long as she has an appropriate amount of attention (all of everyones) she is quite happy!

Zach walked down the aisle with her. I cannot wait to get those pictures back, it was one of the cutest sights I have ever seen!

Playing

Yesterday we meet Erin and Alec and Katy and James at the Broomfield Rec for some play time. They have a fantastic free play area for the kids, all 3 of them loved it, and we'll be going back soon!

Audrina enjoyed showing off her new walking skills.

She also just loves to watch the other kids playing.

James thought it was one of the worst things ever that these balls could not come home with him!

She did great climbing her way up to the slide!

And she didn't want to wait for a picture to be taken before going down the slide.

James on his way down!

This is the most common view I have of Audrina lately. Wanting to be picked up.

Getting some water after a hard workout!

We all had so much fun, and are looking forward to getting together again soon. Next week we might try the pool! (that is if I can find a swim suit that looks half way decent.....)

Getting Ready to Bike!

Saturday we went to the bike shop and purchased a carrier for Drina to ride in this year! Hooray! We have spring fever and are anxious to get on the trails again.

Drian also tried out tricycles, she still needs a few inches but loved crusining around.

Her helmet finally fits her, so we made a game to get her use to wearing it! She seemed to love that both her and Zach had these funny looking things on their heads.

Hopefully next weekend will be nice and we can actually get out on the roads!

Mall Date

Friday we met Katy and James at Flatirons for a playdate to escape the wind. Audrina loves every part of the mall, she sat straight up in her stoller talking and pointing at everything we passed. James' favorite part of the mall is the play kitchens at Pottery Barn. We could have spent half a day playing in the store, we had a great time!

James loved showing Audrina all the different kitchen appliances. Hopefully this kitchen skills will transfer over in a few years and Drina will be an excellent cook, just like her dad!

Actual First Birthday!

Had to celebrate with another cake (cupcake)

She did well at her birthday party with the cake. But now that she's had some practice, she has gotten the hang of this!

I helped her out a little bit. Bite for you, bite for me. :o)

Zach helped as well, although he didn't eat as much as I did!

Disgusting! But isn't that what 1st b-days are for?

Happy Birthday Audrina!

We have had a great year and cannot wait to see what this next year will bring.

1st Birthday Party

We cannot believe that 1 year has already passed! We are having so much fun with Audrina and are so excited to see what this next year will bring!
Thank you to all who attended the birthday party, we were all exhausted, but had a great time!

To those who could not make it, you're in our thoughts and here is a re-cap.

Noah's Ark Cake.

Stupid Sam's Club spelled her name wrong so we had to doctor it up, thankfully the cakes Michelle made for Audrina turned out perfect!

Audrina had a great time being passed from person to person. She loved the balloons and especially loved all of the cheese people kept feeding her!

1st birthday cake was a huge success! Zach and I didn't want to put any pressure on getting the 'perfect cake eating picture', but Audrina loves all food and did not hesitate to dig right in.

Her and James share a love for all balls. It was fun to watch them actually play together (not just smack at eachothers faces)!

Yummy Cake!

We decided to not over do it, and opened the gifts at home, whew!

Thank you everyone!

She loves riding her new princess car!

And playing with her helicopter and all her other new toys!
