Birthday Boy


The Birthday Boy....



The theme of the party was "B"...we had B everything... Balloons, Bundt cakes, and a "B" buffett complete with bugles, Baby Ruth, brownie bites, bubble gum, blow pops....

These are the "birthday bundt cakes"...instead of cupcakes. This was a great idea at the start until I was at home (with the help of Auntie Laura) making all of these on Friday...


Present time!!


Blake's yummy cake made by our great friend Sue.


Our way of saying thanks to all those who came to the "bash"... Bubbles from Blake


We had a great day and most importantly it was a way to spend time with family and friends and really just think about the past year. WOW! We can't believe that a year has come and gone already. A year ago we honestly didn't know when we were ever going to get that call....and then we heard that a little one had been born and they wanted to hurry and get that baby connected with LDS Family Services... Well thank goodness they did because four days later that little baby was in our arms. The amazing miracle of adoption. And then a year later he is a walking, mumbling, ball of energy and we could not be more excited and happy to have him as our ONE YEAR OLD!

One year stats:
walking since 10 months
says - mama, dada, ball, nite-nite, bye-bye, barks (for doggie), blows kisses, waves goodbye
27.5 lbs, 31 in
pacifier only for naps and bedtime

Has it really been a year? That must mean we've been gone that long :(. What a cutie -- so much fun!
