Michael's 1st Birthday!

That is the video from Michael's party with my family. I think he was tired and couldn't decide if he was excited to eat his cake or if he wanted to go to bed, it was pretty funny.

We had multiple parties for Michael's first birthday. We had one with Michael's friend Sam Clatterbuck, who was born 4 days before Michael. They had a lot of little friends over to celebrate with them, and for a morning of mommy time. :) We also had a party with my family and it was also Christian's (my nephew's) birthday the day before Michaels. The kids played at the pool and had a great time. The last party we had was tonight, just our little family of 4. This is a picture of Michael with his gift from us, a Philadelphia Flyers mini hockey stick. He loved it and started chasing Natalie around with it which was hilarious.
Here is James giving Michael his cupcake.
Michael didn't waste any time getting to work. I think he might have mommy's sweet tooth. Natalie on the other hand, asked me to take off her frosting. Who does that??Michael was really frustrated when his cupcake was gone. He ate the entire thing!!


Here is a picture of the kids in the hot tub with Grandma, taking a break from the pool. Caroline, Natalie & Michael.

Here is Michael's first birthday cake. I decided after making this cake that I'm going to take a cake decorating class because I need some help!! It was fun though.

Here is Michael & Sam, getting ready to dig in to their cake.

Here are all the kids that were over to our house for the morning. It was so much fun!! This picture was hilarious, there were screaming babies, I guess that happens when there are 14 kids on one couch. :)

Here is Natalie "helping" me make Michael's cupcakes. Yeah, she is in her pj's, meaning it was about 9:00 in the morning. Oh well, she had fun!
