Sunday we went to busch gardens for LTs first birthday. We had a blast! It was so freaking hot out though! But it was still fun. We started off going into dragon land. They had four rides there that LT could ride on and they had a little water area that he can run threw and a HUGE jungle gym. He rode on the flying dragons first. It was nerve racking for me cuz i didnt know how he would react to the rides. So of course i got on it with him. I was scared bc i didnt know if those little dragons would hold 120 lbs lol. SO we get on it buckle in and the ride starts im wondering then if i should make our dragon go higher. I didnt think our dragon would fly with my ass in it lol. SO i hear mom in the background "go higher!!" so i did. LOL as the dragon creeked and grunted LT started laughing. I was glad to hear that cuz at first he was looking quite barfy lol. But he had fun on that ride. Then the second ride was like a baby ferris wheel but it was dragon eggs. I sat on it and the whole egg just kinda tipped almost over lol. So i had to sit in the middle. He liked that ride too, he wasnt too sure about going way up by the trees though cuz he kept giving the trees the stink eye!! So after that one he got to ride on the cars that are on a track. He wasnt big enough to ride by himself and me and tony were too big to go on it with him so LT got to ride with a little girl about the age of four maybe five! He looked kinda pissy cuz i think he wanted to drive himself lol. We were all laughing cuz i said hes a year old and already riding in cars by himself with a girl lol. It was really cute though!! Then him and daddy got to ride on the dragon go round lol. Then after that i took him on this HUUUUUGGGGEEE jungle gym maze type thing. It was fun until i had to try to walk acrossed the rope bridge. That was scary but i seen bigger moms with their bigger kids go acrossed it so i just kept praying as i walked across! LT didnt help it one bit though cuz he was trying to jump on the ropes lol. So we got to the other rope bridge and that one was more fun cuz it was like a trampoline! Then we played on the playground for a little bit. After that Tony and Shawnie rode on sheikra! I really wanted to ride on the rides but my freakin stomach cant handle rides anymore. Hopefully that situation will be taken care of soon! Then we took LT to Dragon land again to play in the little water area they had there. He had a blast just running around playing in the water. Then we went to Crown Colony restaraunt for lunch. That itself was a blast! First we get to another table bc LT had to sit in a high chair so we moved next to this lady who was singing opera. Me and my sis kept giggling trying our hardest not to bust out laughing! So we get the food and LT eats some french fries from shawnie. Then Im not sure whos idea it was but someone told my mom to give LT a lemon. OH BOY WAS THAT FUNNY. He starts off by cramming the WHOLE lemon in his mouth and making the "holy shit its sour"face. Then we all laugh at him cuz the face he made so he put the lemon back in his mouth but made a face funnier than that one! So we are cracking up as he keeps putting the lemon back in his mouth and making funnier faces everytime. Then one time he about made himself puke from the sourness. We were laughing so hard and the opera lady and her husband were cracking up too! I had tears pouring down my face cuz i was laughing so damn hard! Then after we got calmed down from the lemon faces he grabs my moms napkin (a big cloth one) and he opens it up and puts it on his head and leaves it there! He was playing peek a boo but it was funnier cuz he would leave the napkin on his head and just look around! He had that half of the restaraunt laughing. So after that we decided to leave cuz it was getting hotter out and it was starting to sprinkle.
So after a dreadful hour drive (i get car sick now for some damn reason :/!) we finally get home. We let LT open his gifts after we get settled in. I figured he wouldve tore threw his presents but he was being a girl about it lol. He tore little peices off instead of big peices. But its ok Tony helped him open his gifts. He got a bunch of nice stuff! He got a farm house with little weeble animals, a weeble people plane, a weeble people dump truck, he got a bunch of new beach toys!!! The he got a few books, a very soft piggy which he is sucking on right now as hes taking a nap lol, he got a new nemo- a huge one and a small one. He got the finding Nemo DVD, he got some bath toys and he got a four wheeler power wheel! He loves that thing! Im really shocked that he actually rode it! I didnt think hed like it cuz he wouldnt know how to push the button but boy did he fool us! He can even ride it standing up on the seat lol!!
Heres one of him opening his gifts!!
Yay he got his first REAL football!!!! He loves it too!!
Here he is on his four wheeler! Yes he rode it across the living room like that!! He will have stitches in his head before his second birthday no doubt lol!! I guess thats what i get for having a boy! Girls dont play with that stuff lol just barbies and baby dolls!! Then it was time for cake DUN DUN DUN! Will he eat it like a mad crazed baby? OR will he eat it like a little girl???....
Getting all dressed up in birthday gear!
His cute smash cake!! YUMMY!! It says LT on the side of the cake!!
We ended up getting him nakey cuz he refused the birthday boy bib lol! So we didnt want to stain his clothes from the blue icing!!
THE CAKE! What will he do next?? Everybody has their cameras ready for the next action...
Him smiling with the cake :) hes so cute!! Hes not sure what to do with it though!
THEN he goes for the cake...but didnt completely smash his face into it :( But hey atleast he didnt eat it like a girl!! Im thinking if the cake wasnt so chilly and if he wasnt in a high chair he wouldve made a mess!! But the tray was holding him back!! After a few bites he finally got his nose dirty lol!!
Ahh the traditional NEWTON family horn head picture. YES us newton girls wore our hats like this until we were...well...i wont go there lol. But we dont have the picture of all the dogs with the hats on!! Well poo! Needless to say hes a clean boy!! Mom was happy that he didnt get ANY on the floor! The dogs were pissed! Then after that we had to give him a bath cuz his frosting was used as hair gel and he had more in his ears than in his mouth lol!! LOL then when we were hosing him off he took a poop in the shower lol!!! After that he spent the rest of the day playing with his toys!!
We had a lot of fun! And tonight we are having a party with just the three of us so there will be more pictures to come!!!
So after a great time at hooters we left and went back to our place for the pool party. When we got to the pool we noticed that ALL of our balloons were popped and GONE! Tony walked up there and noticed that there was a family there and he asks them did you guys take our balloons down? And the guy was like "yea, we thought the party was yesterday" so tony was like "uh no, today is my sons first bday party thats why we left the balloons up cuz we had plans before the pool so the guy made his kids put all the balloons up. I was pissed bc nobody there ever cleans up after themselves let alone some elses mess!! The balloons werent bothering anybody, so i think they were just being rude! But anyways they put the unpopped ones back up and i decorated the bar area. Then after i got all the decorations up his boss mike and jane came! It started to rain about twenty minutes into the party but it wasnt as bad as we were expecting!! The kids had a blast swimming, and they were anxious to see what LT got for his bday. So once we realized that the ice cream was no longer ice cream we decided to eat! We all sang to LT and we got him his own little cake again. He got messy with this cake cuz it was already melted. Then the kids and the adults got a piece of cake. When tony gave me my piece i sat it down to take a pic of it but LT grabbed it and shoved it in his mouth!!! I wasnt going to drop my camera for a piece of cake! But i guess LT wanted a colorful cake to eat! man did he get messy!!! Then we hosed him off and let him open gifts. He got a wagon, a lawn mower, a piggy bank, blocks, vsmile baby, two games, a drill, a truck and a cute little outfit. Then after we opened gifts everybody started leaving. SO we had a funfilled busy messy day!!
