February 2013
February 2, 2013: Kailyn's 1st Birthday party. Kailyn had a "Pretty in Pink" Birthday party at home with family and close friends. She absolutely hated her smash cake and getting dirty but loved having a house full of the people she loves most.
February 4, 2013: Happy 1st Birthday to Kailyn!! Her present? Ear tubes. Yes, she had surgery on her first birthday but it truly was the best gift ever. She immediately felt better and only had one more ear infection this year. She was pretty fussy after the surgery due to anesthesia but after a morning nap, she felt great so we took her to PF Chang's for lunch then picked up Caleb. She also reached another milestone- we were able to turn her carseat around to face forward and she loved it! And I have to admit- so did we, no more fussy in the car Kailyn! That afternoon we celebrated by playtime at Kid Venture and ended the day with some left over cake- this time she didn't mind getting messy.
February 9, 2013: Another nice weather day to help us break up the cabin fever of winter so we headed to the Birmingham Zoo for the day with Gran Gran.
February 14, 2013: Happy Valentine's Day! Caleb had a fun party at school while Daddy took Kailyn and Mommy to Connor's for a special lunch. That night we met up with our small group and another group from our class to hand out Valentine's at a local nursing home.
