I've been trying really hard to eat healthy; it's been a difficult task, especially with so much junk food in the pantry. :/
For lunch today I had a tuna-celery lettuce wrap/shell. It looks kind of gross, but it was delicious!

Today was the big day.. Dawson's first birthday party! I had been planning it for months. We were both very upset that his father was not in attendance, but we chose not to dwell and had a great time anyway! I'm so glad a few of my friends showed up, especially after I had so many people cancel on me last minute. I was terrified that no one would show up and it'd be a complete waste of money.. but it wasn't! Dawson had a great time and got lots of toys! I got to see friends I hadn't seen in a while and I got to meet Jessica's little boy Tyler. Have some pictures:


His cake & Cupcakes!


Balloons!



More pictures after the jump :D

Napping!


Rubbing his eyes


Awake

Dawson loves bubble baths in his ducky tub! I bought him a pirate ducky before he was born and forgot about it! I was attempting to clean out our closet and found a bunch of stuff I'd forgotten about/lost. I love when that happens!

Having snow in Vegas is pretty rare, and it's especially rare in North Las Vegas. But it snowed last night/this morning and I took Dawson outside for a little bit!


He was SO excited!

I love watching Baby Bear sleep. During the day, he sleeps peacefully and still in his playpen. But at night when he sleeps in bed with me, he tosses and turns; he's quite the violent sleeper at night!

On New Years morning, I woke up to him giving me a kissie. It was the cutest thing! He was my New Years kiss. :)
