March 26th was the wonderful day Malakai joined our outlandish family, and one year later he is still here with us. We had great fun at his 3 different birthday parties. Spoiled does not accurately describe the awesome gifts this kid received. He got everything from books to clothes, playyards, and a trip to San Diego!
Luckily we, the parents were able to go along for the ride.
We went to the...
Beach: Kai had so much playing and splashing in the ocean. He definately wasn't afraid of the water. He seemed to really enjoy the sand as well. I guess your born with the concept that sand is made for burying things. He would bury everything he could get his hands on (including his hands).
Zoo: Lions, Tigers, and Bears, Oh My!!! What an adventure the zoo was. We felt right at home. The day was hot, long, and fun, but well worth the time.
Aquarium: We go from land creatures to the sea. We were able to see and touch... many species of fish, sea stars, and sea cucumbers. I think Malakai had more fun splashing the water than actually touching the creatures that lived in it. He was wetter than they were!
All in all a first birthday to remember.
