Kyley's 1st Birthday Party in NE and Easter Celebration

Saturday was a big day for Kyley.  We were having her 1st birthday celebration in Omaha with our family.  We rented a room at Lazlo's (yes Mommy & Daddy's favorite restaurant as we didn't think she would mind) for lunch.  Aunt Dale and Cousin Stacy did an amazing job decorating the place in Kyley's favorite...Miss Spider's Sunnypatch Friends.  One would never have know that there were so many fun decorations...not just anyone can be as creative as these two...it was absolutely adorable.  Great food, great decor, great people and one very special little girl.  She had to sneak out for a cat nap before lunch, but Kyley did a great job entertaining her guests and catching up with all of them.  I think that everyone seemed to enjoy the party, and it had been since our wedding 10 years ago that a few of them had seen each other.  It is always so special to get the people you love together in one place and especially to celebrate with the one very AMAZING little thing you have in common!

Kyley did have her own smash cake.  However, her doctor said she is not quite ready for all of that sugar...her little digestive system is not completely caught up to her actual age.  So, we let her have a go at it just to see what she would have done.  We are pretty confident that she would have had her way with that cake lol!  Since she could not eat it her daddy took care of that for her...he could not let it go to waste!  Kyley sat in her chair like a big girl and played while everyone ate, and then she got to open up all of her presents.  She got so many wonderful things and is in need of absolutely nothing.  It is no secret that the little girl is a bit spoiled, but we always say that she deserves it after what she went through to get here!

When the party was over...so was the party girl!  Her head barely touched the back of the car seat and she was out so we headed off to the Smith Easter.  It was so much fun to get to spend more time with her cousins, aunts, uncles and Grandpa Des.  They even got to do an Easter egg hunt.  Kyley even found a few eggs for her mommy and daddy!
