Saturday, the 9th, we celebrated Gavin's First Birthday w/a party at our house. I tried everything to keep it simple and still managed to run out of time. lol. I seriously was throwing things together at the last second all thanks to the Birthday Boy who wouldn't take his regular nap. Everyone but about 4 people showed up, so we had a very full house; about 30 people! Gavin had a blast, once he snapped out of his shock to see everyone. He is the most entertaining kid, never knows a stranger. His Daddy and I were very proud of his hosting abilities :) Aftter attempting to get him to eat his cake (that he HATES) he opened gifts and played with each one after they were opened. First time I've seen a kid not want to play w/paper. He got soo many fun toys and money to buy some other goodies. I'm getting him a pool and DVD player for the car this week w/the $$. Anyways, we were WAY happy to see everyone after everything that has been going on. I know it was a great distraction for my inlaws. Alissa made it and did very well to, minus the little nap she had to take, bless her heart! After the party, we were exhausted!!!!!!! Gavin fell asleep eating dinner in his high chair at 7:00. lol. Next year, we're going out to eat. Ha Ha!!
I was so proud of my Baby Einstein Cake I made all by myself! Oh and check out the fun Caterpillar craft I made behind it!
