Sea World
We got a late start, mostly my fault because a. I'm extremely lazy and b. We needed to finish her week 52 pic as well as upload the rest of the Birthday pics. So here is our RADTASTIC© *this word is copyright of Lizzie* day at Sea World!!
PS No disrespect to Shamu, but I had a better time at the zoo, just saying!

Happy Happy Birthday Olivia Lily!!
Dear Olivia,
Last year I was terrified with the fear of the pain during childbirth, the fear of the unknown, would I be a good Mom? Will you be healthy? The day of your birth I felt so unprepared yet unusually calm at the same time. I waited for you. I knew it was the right time in my life to be your Mom. I knew I was going to protect you, teach you, share your first experiences, listen to you, nurture you. I am raising you with my best friend and I let go of all my fears. I began to feel anticipation. I was ready like you will never know. I wanted to meet the person your Dad and I loved from the second we saw the positive pregnancy stick. Every second with you has been a blessing. I never knew I was capable of such selfless, unconditional love.
Thank you for choosing me to be your Mommy. I swear I'll never let you down.
This year has flown by. I don't think I'll ever forget any of the moments we've shared *obviously I have enough photos to jog my memory*
Happy 1st Birthday Liv!!
Love,
Maaaaah!

World Famous San Diego Zoo
Day two without Internet but I had to post about the zoo. We sort of cheated and wrote on her chalkboard that today was her birthday but it's easier than writing tomorrow is my birthday. We must have taken 300 pictures *just uploaded the Nikon on my laptop, 581 photographs!! Mommerazzi went a bit overboard!!* between the Nikon *I used the larger 200mm lens which worked like a dream* and the Canon Powershot. We also took a few with our iPhones which is all I can upload tonight but I promise this post will be up to it's ears in photos this weekend.
We were bummed the Radio Flyer wagon didn't fit in my car and when I saw a few wagons at the zoo, I was wary, but we turned Liv's stroller seat facing forward so she had a better vantage point and we got more room to store the props *2 chalkboard signs, our moustaches and the hello kitty snack carrier* Seemed to be a perfect day, not too hot but sunny and breezy. Not too crowded, the place felt isolated but rad people took our pictures. I still couldn't figure out how to use the Nikon remote control. Everywhere we turned people were telling Olivia Happy Birthday or telling me how cute her wings are.
We are extremely exhausted but before I hit the sack, I must say that tonight when we got back to the hotel Liv pooped in the toilet!!! Sorry, TMI? To us, this is MAJOR! She was making the poop face *it's hilarious* and I grabbed her and put her on the toilet wearing her diaper. I assumed she pooped in the diaper but when we took it off, it was clean and dry. Then after like a minute we heard a poop and she used the toilet like a big girl. I spazzed out! This is yet another milestone before her 1st year. Now I must buy her potty on Friday.
YAY!! She also gave me and Antz kisses today and I almost died!!
Tomorrow Sea World and Sprinkles cupcake smash is on the agenda. I woke up last night at 3 am so, I'm hoping I get a full nights sleep tonight because I am beat.
