Happy Birthday My Little Boy!!

Jack is one!!! I can't believe an entire year as gone by. It has been an amazing year and I am so thankful for all the memories we have created.
To celebrate Jack we had many friends and family members over for a big party. We spent the morning decorating the house, making cakes and planning games. Charlie is very creative and wanted to have fun games and prizes for all the kids who came to Jack's party. The house was decorated with streamers, balloons and banners. I really had so much fun planning this party. I have always looked forward to throwing parties for my children. I took full advantage of that chance, even if Jack is only one.

We had many friends and family come. There were many young children who truly love Jack. They really wanted to be a part of each detail. They were very interested in the gifts after playing games like bowling, ring toss, and pin the lips on the frog. The theme of the birthday was frogs and some other animals.

A very favorite gifts was this toy cell phone. He is always interested in buttons and things electronic.

We also have a very musical little boy. Charlie got a keyboard for Christmas and Jack absolutely loves it. We thought it would be fun for him to have his own keyboard. He enjoys being able to make music.

Then is was cake time. I made a frog cake for the adults and cupcakes for the children. The cupcakes looked like monkeys and lions. Then I made a small cake for Jack that looked just like a frog. He picked up the entire thing and stuck it in his mouth. He sucked the cake through the frosting. It was funny to watch. We did not have a huge mess, but he ate quite a bit of cake. He has a sweet tooth just like his mommy.



Since we celebrated Jack's birthday party on Saturday, we decided to have fun family night on Monday, his actual birthday. After Charlie got home from work we had pizza while we watched a movie. I thought about having left over cupcakes, but Jack was still recovering from the cake on Saturday. I love our little boy so much. It was scuh an amazing weekend. I hope he always knows how much we love him.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
