Sunday we had a birthday party for the baby. His plates and cups were decorated with teddy bears and rocket ships. It was so cute. I made him a cake, (instead of spending sixty dollars on a tasteless one from the grocery.) I made a yellow cake with vanilla frosting colored baby blue. I also piped some lettering in yellow colored frosting. The baby really enjoyed opening his presents, especially the pulling out the tissue paper part. He received a fancy toy, dishes, soap and lotions. He had a really good time. I let him eat his cake by himself, just like I let his sister nearly nine years ago. He was a big blue mess! After that I even let him play outside in the yard. I know, those of you that know me can not believe it but it is true. I will post a picture here so you can see. He was very dirty, and very happy! We also had a lot of family there so it was extra special. It was a fun day, celebrating my baby's first birthday.
