Look Who's ONE!!

On May 21st Benjamin turned one. Here are some things we did to celebrate:


May 20th we had a party for him at my work. Basically there were no office birthdays in May and we all just wanted cake, but it was still fun and cute.

ON MAY 21ST WE:



Opened cards, which were possibly his favorite present at the time. He loved his birthday cards so much we brought them on our long car trip because they kept him entertained for so long!

Opened presents
Installed and used his new forward-facing carseat

Went to the mall and visited the Disney store - He LOVED the sparkely red floor and we bought him some sunglasses. The guy behind the counter heard it was Ben's birthday so he made him a special Hero sticker with the birthday boy's name on it.
Had a party! From the left: Mom and Benjamin, Cambria (her back, anyway), Corwin, Lori, Zaden, and Aunt Kami
Had cake! This is the cake I made for Benjamin to destroy. The pictures on it are clockwise from the top left: A tree, music notes, book, block, and bubble bath. The cake remained mostly intact because Benjamin would only take tiny bites and didn't seem to like getting his hands dirty. He still had fun though!
A week later, we got to do presents and cake with my family in Idaho!
Classic ring-stacking toy!

A fire station! Wow, that's mine! (KaileeJo and Taydom were helping by this point.)

MMM...Benjamin did not mind getting messy to eat Great Grandma Thompson's cake!


Horray for Birthdays!

Can't believe he's one already (more like 1 and 2 months by now). How time flies!
