Lauren loves cake!

Here is a video from Laurens 1st birthday party.

We kind of new she wouldn't eat any cake, shes never been a fan of it or any real food. But I tried to shove it in her face anyways.

She does like ice cream though and the day after the party I was eating a left over cupcake and she ate half of it! Hopefully she'll want to eat cake at her 2nd birthday party, we'll see!

Laurens PARTY!

We finally had time for Laurens FIRST birthday party!
Here you can see some pics of how she didn't want any of her cake or cupcakes, but she did have a lot fo fun with all her presents, she wasn't to thrilled with the clothes though. With so many people she was pretty shy all day but once she got to the presents she had a blast playing until bedtime. I have some video I'll try and post later today.

Getting her cupcake ready

Wasn't to interested with the cake but liked the singing

w/ daddy at work

For Laurens 1st Birthday we went and visited Daddy at Work in Belfair. It was a long drive but Lauren got to play in daddys office and discovered his box of nutrigrain bars (she loves the wrappers, they make fun noises and are shiny). We also went out to lunch at a mexican restaurant down the street for lunch and then went to Athens for Dinner with the family. She slept through most of dinner but woke up just in time for ice cream which she wouldn't eat.

Her birthday party is this saturday 2/21 @ 1:00 at our house, if anyone is in town please stop by for some cake and ice cream.

Laurens Fort

Finally found some time to put a post on here, its been pretty busy in the watson household with work & soccer. Lauren turns one next week (2/12) , not sure where the time went. She insists on walking everywhere and even tries to walk up the stairs (its interesting) she tries to walk down them too. She can say and wave bye bye, she loves kids and tries to play with all of them. She still loves her cousins and her and Jake are BFF's. She can also turn any room into a pigsty within 10 minutes (as you'll see on the video), I think she gets that from the West side of the family. She LOVES books and makes us read her almost every book she has, she'll have me read one page and then when she thinks I'm done with the page she'll take it over to Joe to have him read the next page and it keeps going back and forth like that for the whole book. She can do that for hours, her favorite books are the thick ones because she can turn the pages herself and she loves the touch and feel books or anything that has mirrors. She loves to look at herself in the mirror and whenever she see's herself she runs to the mirror and kisses herself, she also does this with all her dolls and animals (not sure which side of the family she gets that from, I'm guessing Joe's).
You'll see in the video that she now loves forts, and just running and trying to talk. This video is pretty much how she acts everyday. Oh and she FINALLY got a tooth!!!!!
We are still looking into visiting some family in the next few months and can't wait to visit everyone during the summer. ta ta for now!
