A few random shots...

"Rockin"

Hanging out with Cuz.

Eating ribs. Yum, yum, yum!

Taking a break from bouncing with Mommy.

Dreaming about throwing the football.

Chillin in my new chair.

Just being cute!

The Birthday Party

Sanders had a big time at his first birthday party. We were fortunate to have so many friends and family there to share the day.

Wagon rides for everyone.

And cupcakes!

although Sanders wasn't that interested in blowing out the candle.

Charles demonstrating the best way to eat a cupcake.

Playtime

Time for opening presents and cards.

Birthday Boy

A year sure goes by fast. It's pretty hard to comprehend that our little man is now 1. Everything about it has been a complete joy. And we're looking forward to many more.

Sanders celebrated his actual birthday with Nana and Grampa at Camp. There may have been a little hesitation in the beginning, but once that finger went it, Sanders was all about some icing!
(I think he gets that from his Dada!)

You may think he's playing peak-a-boo, but really he's just watching me devour my piece of cake across the table. Probably not the prettiest sight.

And more celebrating at school.... He confirmed, "Yes, the orange tastes just as good as the blue", but he couldn't figure out why the cake was so small this time.

Mommy and her babies

There is a lot of snuggling going on around our house.

and kisses....
(forntuately for all of us, the cats are playing along.)
