Keira's First Birthday Party!!!

Believe it or not...Keira is now one year old!!!  We definitely had our ups and downs this past year, but I think we are finally getting the hang of being a family of four!

One of my greatest memories of Keegan at a young age, is his time at The Little Gym.  I remember taking him there once a week and calling Kevin after each of our classes being so excited to tell him what Keegan did in class.  The Little Gym is such a welcoming, positive, and comfortable setting for parents and children. 

When I began planning for Keira's party I originally thought it would be an open house at our home.  But then, after watching how much Keira likes to climb, roll around, and be active, I just knew The Little Gym was the perfect place for her party.  So, today we had our friends and my parents to a Little Gym Birthday Bash!  I am so glad I chose to have the party at The Little Gym.  I was honored when the owner, Katie, was the lead teacher for the event.  Katie led the kids in a 70 minute gym program that included an air mat, a parachute, a balance beam, bubbles, and lots of exploration on all the gym equipment.  I was so in awe of how Katie created an atmosphere of controlled fun!  The kids behaved so well and had a wonderful time!  We ended the party with cake and punch!

Success!!!
I left the party with a huge smile on my face knowing that my kids had a great time and my friend's children had an equally good time.  I could not have asked for a better celebration for Miss Keira's special day!
