First birthday!!!

Okay, Its been a really long time since I updated. I apologize, I have no good excuse except for the fact that life is crazy and we are loving every second of it. So here are some pictures of Gavin's First Birthday last Friday the 12th. I'm truly amazed at how fast this past year has gone by.

This is Gavin's B-Day set-up. Ashley, Jenilyn's daughter seems to like it. I wanted a personal cake just for him to go crazy on so I made one.....then a bunch of cup cakes for all the kidos..... And for the adults I made chocolate peanut-butter ice cream cake. Here's the big Birthday boy!!!

Trying, trying, trying to get him to eat something. He was starting to get really sick so our boy didn't want to have anything to do with food. I felt so bad for him.

Sitting with Grandpa before the party started. Grandpa knows how to make him feel better.

Happy but still not feeling well. Such a good boy though, a real trooper.

Birthday cake! Can you tell how excited we are? We had been looking forward to this for so long, and Gavin, well, he didn't seem to care. Look at Matt's face and hands. So cute.

Birthday Boy and his very own cake, which he didn't eat.

Jenilyn put this all on his face. Poor sick little man.... he really didn't want anything to do with food. Our little guy puts up with so much being a member of our family. :)

They tried playing with it too, but he was more interested in feeding her and the other kids then eating it himself.

Aunt Sissa and Gavin hanging out. Can you tell how excited he is?! He went to bed right after everyone left and he slept so well.

This is Carmen and Molly, one of Gavin's best friends. I love this picture. They are so cute.

The crew.

I love this picture because all the kids, ALL of them flocked over to Justen who is one of our best friends. He's single and doesn't have any kids but he handeled it very well.....after a little hyperventilation. :)

So besides Gavin getting sick his birthday went over really well. He got a ton of toys and clothes. Our friends and family were so thoughtful and generous. We feel so grateful for such wonderful people in our lives.
