Happy Birthday to our Sweet Boy!

Today, our little tiny baby is one! Ok, so maybe he's not so little tiny anymore, but it sure seems like he should be. Where on earth did this year go? I love this little guy more than I can express and he has made our lives SO much richer. C.J. and I decided tonight that this year has been our best ever, and that is largely due to the fact that our sweet baby joined our family!

I decided not to do a big party for Silas this year. I figured that this year he doesn't know the difference so why not take advantage of that and just enjoy a low key celebration with the four of us. And let me just say, I am SO glad we did. I love a good party here and there, but it was sooooo much fun to just hang around as a family all day (even if we are all feeling a bit under the weather). We put up a few decorations, opened presents, ate cupcakes, and just lazed around all day. And I'm pretty sure we all enjoyed it. Happy Birthday my sweet baby! I love you so much more than words can express. It is such an honor to be your Mama!













This awesome banner was made by Alli and I happen to love it. Thanks Al. It definitely makes decorating for a birthday easy!

And then there's this sweet boy. He came up to me this afternoon in this get up and asked, "Mom, don't I look like a vampire?"
I love him, too!

Too cute, that cupcake looks huge in his little hands. Glad you guys had a nice quiet birthday party for Silas. Loved the birthday banner too.
