A Day of Firsts

Yesterday, our daughter turned a year old. For the first time, my husband and I took her to the park to play. While there, we pushed her on the swings for the first time and let her ride a bouncy toy.

Once it started to rain, we took her to the mall's indoor play area, another first for her. It was so overrun with other families also hiding out from the rain, though, that she didn't spend a whole lot of time playing there. She didn't seem to know what to do.

So we took her to the food court and gave her her first pizza. It was cheese, and she seemed to really enjoy it.

When we got home, she had her first birthday cake, her first taste of ice cream and my husband put together her first toy box.

All in all, a very good day.
