The BIG 1!!

One year ago today, I had a baby. Nine lbs. 10 oz. He came out the size of a two month old and is still big for his age.

I’ll spare you the gory details, but my baby, who never was small, is one today!! He’s taking his first steps, but is in no hurry to walk rather than crawl.

So we went out on the town…to Walmart since that’s all our town has to offer! Got a free cookie and some chocolate at the register, as well as a small birthday cake for the birthday boy and some ice cream to go with the party!

In the process of our party preparations, Elijah who is nearly three, wanted a birthday cake and wanted to be the birthday boy. I would imagine that is how it will go during the party. Picture this: We give Josh the presents, Elijah takes over, opens them and plays with the cool new toys. (As if we need any more toys since we just had Christmas one month ago.) Joshua gets the wrapping paper and the boxes, and will be perfectly content. He will, however, go nuts over the chocolate birthday cake and ice cream. We’ll see if we can post some of the birthday pictures of our cute little one year old!
