First Birthday Party

Ok, this is the last of the pictures from Brian's first year (even though his birthday party was actually on the 8th.)

This first picture is with Lorene Gabler, a family friend missionary who was visiting my Mom with her husband and another couple.  Brian wasn't much into smiling for the picture, but he enjoyed visiting with them.


We are all so glad Grammy got to come out for Brian's party.  Here are a few pictures of Grammy and Brian doing "patty cake" on the couch, and enjoying each other's company!


Here's a view of the cupcakes I made and (some) of his presents


Flyin' Brian - flying to Granny B


Walking across the room with purpose!  He was showing off his walking all day (but I never got a good picture of it)


Brian can always tell when there's a camera around.  Cheese!


Our little monkey is one!


We were happy that Aunt Mary Ann was able to come to the party as well.  Hey Aunt Mary Ann - do you see those balloons?!?!


Presents!


Sitting with Granny B.  Daddy is trying to entice him to start opening presents


Once he got started ...


He was hooked!




A pause in the celebration for a hug for Daddy!




Pulling out tissue paper was fun (and made a lovely mess), but ripping paper off is even more fun!







Even friend Kellan got in on the paper ripping!  He's practicing up for his birthday in another 6 months.







He had wrapping paper stuck to his foot - like toilet paper (only cleaner).


Checking out the rocking horse.



 Cupcakes!



 Daddy, can I have yours too?


What?


Isn't this how everyone eats chocolate cake?


We decided it would be easier to just put him in the bath after the cupcake ...


You can almost hear Brian saying "I love you, Mama, but can I go get another cupcake?"


He was rinsing off his hands as the tub filled.


Post bath (and post chocolate) happiness!
