1st Birthday Party

I decided to save the posting about all that our 1 year old Gavin is up to these days until after his 12 month wellness check on Wednesday. So this posting is dedicated to his 1st birthday party.

On Saturday Gavin's Gpa and Gma Brown were kind enough to allow us to use their house to host a little party to celebrate our big one year old boy! We had a great time celebrating with friends/neighbors and family!

Singing "Happy Birthday to You" to the Birthday Boy

The highlight of the party had to be the eating of the 1st cake. Gavin surely did not disappoint! At least, he did not disappoint me. Lots of fun messy face, but not so messy that I had to strip and hose him down :)

(The 1st Birthday Cupcake Cake was a big hit)

"Hummm, this stuff is pretty good"

"Ok, it is really good! (but I don't care for that 'cake' stuff as much"

Gavin has many generous friends and family members who showered him with gifts (at the party and otherwise). He didn't seem to get the whole gift thing at first. It was like, "why are you showing me this cool toy and then putting it off to the side and making me open something else. But, he eventually started figuring the unwrapping part out. Fortunately he had such a wonderful big sister to help him figure it all out!

All in all, it was a fun day! Thanks to everyone that helped made it a fun and special day for Gavin! We missed through of you who could not make it, but know that you were there with us in spirit!
