Will's first birthday party.

Yesterday we drove to Cheyenne to have Will's first birthday party at my In-laws house. My sister Wendee and her two daughters drove up from Denver to spend this time with us. That morning I made some cupcakes (zucchini and apple with frosting and sprinkles), made some brownies, a salad for lunch and drove the 45 minutes or so to Cheyenne. Will took a morning nap in the car on the way over and I'm glad he did so he wasn't as grumpy for his party. Before the party we went to the dollar store to get some balloons for the party. As I was going out of the store Will could see me holding the balloons from the car and broke out into a huge grin, waving his arms. The entire way back to my In-laws Will was trying to grab the balloons, and talking to them.

Will's birthday party was a little different than Joshua's. For Joshua's we had a theme, I made a fancy cake, we even had a birthday party for Joshua's friends. For Will; I bought the supplies from the dollar store, I made a cheap cake, and we had a family party instead. I enjoyed it, however, the party went way too fast. Although we did sing 'Happy Birthday' to him he is still 11 months old and won't be a year until 10:25pm on May 5th!! :)


Opening gifts!! Thank you everyone for everything!!!

Happy Birthday to you!!


Just before this picture I tried to finger feed Will a piece of his frosted cupcake. He wouldn't eat it so I put a piece in his mouth and he started to cry because I 'made' him eat some of the sweet yummy cake. So I gave him his pacifier to calm him down.


This IS yummmy!!





Time for a bath so I can play with my new bubble machine. Thank you Aunt Wendee and family and Aunt Heather!
