HAPPY 1ST BIRTHDAY ALEX!

It is so hard to believe my baby is one already! We had a great day yesterday celebrating Alex's first birthday!  We kept the celebration low key. Alex didn't mind.  Nana and Aunt Lindsey came over for dinner, cake and presents.

What one year old doesn't love Thomas the Train?  

I attempted to get a picture with Alex and his cake before dinner...

My plan backfired...Alex has quick fingers

 How is it Alex?

A corner seems to be missing...

Blow out your candle!

 A little tentative to try it...

 This isn't so bad

 It take two hands to get all the frosting

 I like this birthday thing

 Want a kiss Lindsey?

I love being one!

A bath might not be a bad idea...

There's more? Alex was happy he got presents and wrapping paper to play with. Wait until Christmas big guy! You will really have some fun!

This morning Alex had his one year check up.  In case you are wondering, yes he is still a big guy!  He has however slowed down with his weight gain.  We weighs 25 1/2 pounds which is in the 75-90% range.  He is off the charts in his height at 34inches long and his head is 18 3/4, which is in the 75-90% range.  I'm sorry for the shots buddy!   Happy Birthday Alex!  We love you!!
