Here's some pics of Wes' first birthday party...it was a little chilly but awesome to have so many friends, neighbors and family around. He loved the Baby Einstein character cake (my friend Rrin and I made it)....so much so he wouldn't eat it! He too one lick, made a funny face and stuck to the peas...that's my healthy boy! ha ha. Also he really showed his personality- serious, taking in the whole situation then when he's comfortable having a blast! It was so special for us to celebrate our growing little man!
Last nights fun- Go San Diego Chargers!
I got to meet Jen and Kyles bundle of cuteness this weekend....Sleeping Beauty sums it up. Its hard to remember Wes being that small and that easy! ha ha! We also got a good video...Wes cracking up at a balloon! He doesn't laugh very often (but smiles a lot) so this is rare footage. I guess we know what to get for his birthday!
Dave was home this week and we had a ton of fun. We bought new furniture, went to the pumpkin patch, hosted Dave's family, went horseback riding and ran a half marathon!! Like I said fun and busy week! This was our first 1/2 marathon and it went great- I'm sure we will do another someday. And to top it all off Wes took his FIRST STEPS this weekend!!! He is officially
"walking" at 11 1/2 months. He is getting good a his new skill and tries it often...makes it a few steps then falls, but it will be only a matter of time until he's running! Good thing I've been training! ha.
A few weeks ago I hosted my old roommate and sweet friend, Jennifer Lind's, baby shower. April, Charity, Katie and I all planned it and it was so fun I was shocked how the time flew when the last few left at 6pm...I didn't want it to end. The theme was vintage birdy- the decorations by Katie were fabulous and the food yummy. Here are a few pics from the beautiful day. Jen I am so excitd to meet Kiera May- she is so lucky to have you as parents!
Also I have been learning how to sew this year so I made Jen's presents- a Hooter Hider with a burpcloth sewn in....
And a hooded bath towel (sorry the picture is sideways). They both came out really cute and I can't wait to see a picture of Kiera after a bath!
