Our cutie pie turned one!! Before I give you all the details of the birthday festivities, here’s his last weekly pic.
And in crazy mom-stalker fashion, the last pic before the big day.
Ok, on to the birthday. We kicked off the morning with balloons in bed, of course! He spent about ten minutes throwing them in the air and making them pop out of his crib.
He spent a little time at our sitter’s playing with friends while I took Beckett to therapy, then we ran some last-minute birthday errands and snuggled for the rest of the afternoon.
After Addie came home from dance class, Auntie and Gram joined us for pizza. Coen ate the entire time. Pesto knots, fruit puffs, an entire bottle of milk. Then came home and ended the night with a giant slice of cake.
Today, we had some of our favorite friends and family over to celebrate at Coen’s county fair!
I had planned to have the party outside but Mother Nature had other plans, so in we stayed. Games were set up downstairs, fair food upstairs, jumpy house in the garage. Not exactly what I envisioned but I don’t think the birthday boy cared much. I’m pretty terrible about taking pictures of the action at my kids’ birthdays, but the decor sure looked good 🙂
Coen’s favorite part of the party…food.
He barely touched his cake though. None of my kids have loved their first birthday cakes. But still, I think overall it was a success. And now he’s eating again, so really, all is right in his world!
It sure has been a fun and exciting year with this darling boy. He’s truly a blessing! We’re so lucky we get to be his parents!! Happy birthday, little love!
