Our lil guy turned the big #1 today and it was so fun to share his special day with him! Last night, I cleaned the house, baked his Birthday cake, and wrapped his gifts so we could surprise him in the morning. I was so excited I couldn't even sleep. The morning started off with Ryan and I waking up Connor so Ryan could see him before he left for work. It took Connor a little while to wake up and understand what was going on....
We took him downstairs and had him open one gift...I had his presents and cake on the dining table with balloons and Happy Birthday sign. Connor just looked with curiosity.
We had Connor open a few gifts in the morning before Ryan left for work... We were planning on doing the cake and a few more presents after work. One thing that Connor really enjoys is books...So I decided to take him to the library for the first time. He loved it! He kept pulling all the books off the shelves and flipping through them. I plan on taking him back very soon...
After the park we came home so Connor could blow out his first candle and have some yummy cake. It has been such an amazing year... Our little guy has been such a blessing in our lives and we have enjoyed watching him grow, learn to talk, and greet us with a smile every morning!
Happy 1st Birthday Connor bug!!!
We love you so much!!
Happy Birthday Connor!! I loved his party! You did such a good job with his cake!! That little boy is just too cute!! I was the same as you... I couldn't sleep the night before Boone's party. It's just SO exciting being a mommy!!! :)
