Rylie was very intrigued by the whole thing for a few minutes, but unfortunately the woman working there wasn't quite fast enough to finish the whole thing during the "intrigued" phase.
On Friday afternoon as we were coming back from the park, we saw that our new camera had arrived and Adam was busy playing with his new toy. Here's Rylie for her first pictures with the new camera.
On Saturday night, we went to dinner with Auntie Bethany, Uncle Jay, Jordyn, and Micah. We had a great dinner, and Rylie had her first ice cream sundae after the waiters all sang Happy Birthday! For a child who has been pretty picky about food lately, she was not picky at all about the sundae. She LOVED it!
It's almost my birthday!!! The many faces of Rylie....
On Sunday morning, we gave Rylie her birthday gift... a red wagon. She loves it, and especially enjoyed putting her dolls and other toys inside of it. We took Rylie for a walk in her new wagon. 
Since Rylie has had so many parties in the three months she's been home, we decided to do a low-key afternoon at the park with some friends to celebrate her first birthday. There is a splash fountain at the park, so we tried on one of Rylie's bathing suits in the morning, but it was a little big, so it will be for next summer.
SI Swimsuit Edition, Watch Out..... 
Here are some pictures from our afternoon at the park and the splash fountain. Rylie LOVED the splash fountain. She is unbelievably adventurous and eager to try everything. Something we definitely love about her, but her fearlessness makes us extremely nervous!
Yummy Cupcakes!
Getting ready to dig in...
Needless to say, we are all exhausted from a wonderful weekend!
Love to everyone...

We were thinking of you this weekend. Glad to see you had a great time. Your birthday wagon looks like loads of fun. We are looking forward to watching the girls play together in the splash fountain in May.

Happy first birthday Rylie!!!
Happy first birthday!! What a beautiful girl! I just read back a little bit and saw you wrote about her naming. We also would be having a naming ceremony/bris (?! not sure with age etc) but I'm wondering if you used a program and wouldn't mind sharing. Of course, I am WAAAAY ahead of myself right now, but I don't want to forget when the time is right ;-) where do you live? thanks for posting on my blog!

Wow! All of that looks like so much fun! Rylie reminds me of Gigi in that while they are both beautiful girls, their smiles are simply breathtaking and transform their entire face.
Love the swim suit pose! Too cute!
Happy first birthday Rylie!
