Our baby boy has turned one year old! That is call for celebration! But with respect to all of the other "excitement" that has been going on around here, we kept our One -Year -Old bash very low-key, but still full of lots of love for our youngest munchkin.
and of course, no first birthday is ever complete without the official first cupcake:
And finally, he opened his presents:
Poor Jack...he is the low man on the totem pole around here, but he still has a smile that could melt any heart. He is one of the sweetest, smiliest, most joyful babies I have ever known. And he does. not. sit. still. He started walking about two months ago, and now he is into EVERYTHING!!!!! He loves to spend his days emptying out the recycling bin (leaving empty water bottles and cardboard boxes strewn throughout the house), splashing in the dog's water bowl, rearranging furniture, and emptying out kitchen cabinets and drawers:
You are exhausting, little one, but your smile and the way you snuggle in so nicely on my shoulder have kept me sane on more than one occasion. You, of course, are growing up way too fast, but it is so much fun to watch you discover the world. The simple joys of a flashlight or blowing bubbles are amazing to you, and it helps to remind me to appreciate the little things in life. Sometimes they produce the biggest smiles, the deepest belly laughs, and the best memories. So Happy 1st Birthday. May it be the first of many and may you find more and more happiness with each one.

Woah! I'm really digging the template/theme
of this blog. It's simple, yet effective. A lot of times it's very hard to get that "perfect balance" between user friendliness and visual appeal.
I must say you have done a amazing job with
this. In addition, the blog loads very quick for
me on Opera. Superb Blog!
