Last week, September 28th, Sean turned ONE! I can't believe it! Most of the festivities were held on Saturday, so that Jeff could be there. We went out for Mexican food, where Sean got to wear his party hat.
He did NOT like his party hat. (This picture makes me cringe, thinking he's going to snap himself - I just need to keep reminding myself that I caught it before it happened!)
He loves coloring (although we're pretty sure that the missing tip of the purple crayon ended up in his belly).
After the restaurants and presents comes his cake! If you know Sean, you know that he goes crazy for Veggie Tales - he is obsessed with it. So, I just had to do a Veggie Tales cake. Growing up, the birthday cakes were always done by my Aunt Shari - and they were amazing! I was so tempted to fly her out here to do Sean's (and I'm sure it would have looks much better)! Overall, it was fun, but I'm definitely going to have to take some cake decorating classes - I had no idea what I was doing! I'm just glad that I had a cake decorating kit that my cousin, Jon, gave me a while back. (Thanks, Jon!)
Hmmm, what are Bob and Larry doing here?

What is this blob...
First taste
Not so sure
Tearing pieces off to throw on the ground.
Checking to see if Bob and Larry are still there.

Going to lick the chocolate off the tray
Finger Painting with Cake. Yum.

Hurray for Birthdays!
On his actual birthday (Tuesday), we went up to campus to have lunch with Daddy. Sean got his first Happy Meal of apple juice, apples, and chicken nuggets.
It was a very happy birthday. Thank you to everyone who helped make this birthday a special one! It's hard to believe that my baby is now a walking toddler!
