It is, in fact, FUN to be ONE! Why not? I mean come on- the whole idea is to take cake and ice cream and SLAM it into your own face for the FIRST time and just wallow in it. So Blayne, Caden and I marched ourselves to the newest cupcake place in town- Delasandri's Gourmet Cupcakes- we bought 4 different kinds -to let Caden try-...Blayne insisted on carring them upstairs...see above...we ate them anyway, of course- he's one, he didn't seem to notice.
It was truly a beautiful moment- he was thrilled. As far as gifts, as a second child (sorry buddy) we tried to stick to 1.) things we didn't already have, and 2.) things we really needed. Yes, bowls were scarce in our kitchen- but hey, they were a hit!!!
These one fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish shoes were too much for momma to resist...
And finally, cake time! I have Caden J. pegged as a vanilla man, but Blayne chose who got which cupcakes. Chocolate it was.
Ah yes, oh happy day; messy, chocolaty bliss.
The annual illegal picture in front of the police station.
And so goes the celebration- PARTY ON!
Even Zaza made it for the special day! After all, she was here last year!
What, other than bowls and cake, does a one year old really want? Freedom to pull as many wipes or tissues out of the box as he wants, of course!! And, yes, he did make it all the way to the bottom before he crashed at nap time.
Aw yeah, fun to be one for sure! Happy 1st birhtday Caden J.

I LOVE the tissue box! I have no idea what to get Charlotte for Christmas, so I might just have to give her a box or tissues and a box of baby wipes! She would have a blast!
