I have thought all day about labor and delivery....it wasn't really a whole YEAR ago, was it? No way have i had this little man in my possesion for 365 days! It's unreal how time flies and unfair too. Despite my refusal to let my baby turn 1, he did and we had a really great day! We took him to get a haircut to start the day off...that was HORRIBLE! I had wanted to take pictures (i had visions of him sitting on my lap, happily licking a sucker and getting a really cute haircut) but i ended up getting to hold his face while Chad pinned him down on his lap. He was screaming and squirming but i had to hold his head still while the hair stylist snipped a little here and a little there. AFTER the haircut, he got a sucker and ate it in 5 minutes. He was SO sticky, then the loose hair stuck to him, so needless to say he was a sticky mess!!
After a quick bath and a nap, it was PARTY time! We had it on the patio by the pool here at Rivercrest. As you can see below, alot of our family was able to come and boy was he SPOILED! THanks everyone for the gifts and for coming. Carter may not remember it, but i know many of you made a lot of sacrifices to be here and I will ALWAYS cherish this memory!
This kid gobbled down his cake QUICK and wanted more!!
He had no interest in opening gifts...so i did all the opening.
Tony's (Carter's Uncle - my brother) birthday is on Sept 10th, but we thought we would celebrate his along with Carter's since he has to work on his birthday. Here are the birthday boys!
I attempted a football cake, and it turned out ok i thought.
