Happy Birthday Landon!!


Landon had his 1st birthday on Thursday. I can't believe that he is already a year old. We had Jenny's family over for dinner and all the fun! Jenny was babysitting Katie's youngest two. Six little ones made for a great time.:) After dinner we played with bubbles.



So I was feeling creative and saw this cake online and decided to make it. I thought it turned out really cute and I was very proud. I had to show someone right away. The only one home was Carson. I brought him into the kitchen and showed him the cake. He was so excited. He started signing duck and was freaking out. That was my first mistake. Every five minutes he would run up to me signing duck and then run to the fridge to have another look. I warned him over and over not to touch. It was getting close to party time and I was on the phone with my mom and walked upstairs for a minute. When I came back down Carson was no longer watching Dora. I ran to the fridge to find both hands and face covered in yellow frosting!! When he saw me he burst into tears. I am talking the huge kind that run down your face. I was laughing so hard. I felt bad because he knew he wasn't supposed to touch. It was too much temptation to handle. I wish I had taken pictures but I was too busy comforting him and his hiccup cries. I thought I could fix the frosting, but he got chunks of cake out as well. It was great!





Landon had a lot of help opening presents.

I think the paper was his favorite part.



By the end he was all tuckered out and ready for bed.

I can't believe my little caterpillar is a year old already! I LOVE that cute cake. We were cracking up at the story. Mark thinks once Landon is old enough to understand what happen, he'll always hold it over Carson's head. We can hear it now, "You always ruin everything...you even ruined my first birthday cake". That's hilarious :)! We love the pictures with the bite out of it too :)!

That's so cute! I can't believe he can sign duck! What a smarty pants, and a tender lil thing. He must love his mommy a whole lot! The cake looks amazing! Way to go!

I just can't believe that he is a whole year old and he doesn't even know his granny. I will have to make it up to him in a few months. We love you all!!!
