One Year Older and Wiser Too


Theo turned one on April 6th, and I am just finally going to post about it. Bad Mommy. Isn't he cute though? We had a party for him on April 4th at my Mom's. It was a "Wheels on the Bus" party, and I had a great time. I think Theo enjoyed most of it.



He was not super crazy about the cake. I think he was mainly thrown off by everyone standing around and watching him. He only ate a tiny bit and then started trying to claw his way out of the highchair. I rescued him since I thought it wasn't fair to torture him with delicious chocolate cake on his birthday if he didn't want it.

Here's my boy with his two boy cousins (although a new boy cousin was born this week! Yay!) in front of the bus that Gabe made mostly on his own. That's right. Gabe made the bus. What can I say? I'm a lucky woman.


We also made lots and lots of party hats. This one has lots of feathers which is fun. My mom and sisters helped with the hats until Alyson got distracted by the feathers. Feathers can be very distracting.




This is the video I made of Theo's first year to show at the party. I hope you enjoy it. If you are Theo'd out, I understand.

Also, I went to New Orleans last week, which was awesome. Maybe I'll get a minute to post about that soon.

I loved seeing him in that jumping toy. It looked like he was trying to dance to the music.
