HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHILD 1

My baby is 9 years old today. NINE. He's almost in the double digits. I'm not freaking out, for some reason. Maybe that will happen later.

Anyway, here are some pictures of his FIRST birthday party that I thought you might enjoy. I don't usually show pictures of my kids but I figured since these were taken 8 years ago and he doesn't look like this anymore, it should be okay. I did, however (obviously) Photoshop fix the writing that was on the cake, because it had a frosto.

This was obviously before the major food/sensory issues that he still has today; I cannot imagine him ever again getting this messy with food. This was also the best birthday party I have ever experienced in my life.

The cake. Since this was birthday #1, it was a carrot cake, made with only organic, all natural ingredients. *snicker* He had never had anything like it before, as you will soon see.

"Do you like my hat?" "No, I do not like this party hat."

"What is this substance you have given me? It's red and sticky. I'm dubious."

"HOLY SHIT. THIS IS THE GREATEST THING EVER INVENTED. DON'T STOP ME, I'M GOIN' IN!"

"I approve of your food choices, Mother. Oh, yes. I do approve."

Awesome! Happy Birthday Child 1!

That is EXACTLY how i feel about cake--which is why I never make it unless it is someone's birthday.

Now, if you'll excuse me, i need to go check the birthday calendar. It's gotta be SOMEONE'S birthday...

I heart your children, but I have a very soft spot for Child 1. And it's not indigestion!
