September 12th, 2011 this little cutie turned 1!
He happens to be our sweet nephew Hayden! Hard to believe a year ago he was this small!
We celebrated his first birthday the following Sunday with family & a few friends at my parents' house.
Wendi (Hayden's Mom) and I spent the night before decorating a bit. Wendi acutally did the majority of it and I was so proud of her! She borrowed my cricut and went to town!!
Hayden got a lot of fun gifts. He was more interested in the wrapping, tissue paper, and boxes though (as most kids are)! Hayden just went along and would randomly pull gifts out of their bags or wrapping!
He particularly like this little monkey! So sweet! We got him a little blow up ball pit.
Grandpa Duane grilled out and we had all kinds of yummy sides to go with our hot dogs & hamburgers! And of course the most important part of a birthday party: CAKE!!
Wendi got Hayden his own little smash cake from a local favorite bakery. He was a little hesitant at first…..
but then went to town! Gotta love smash cake pictures!! (Makes me excited for Adelyn's party...but I know it's going to come sooner than what I expect).Happy birthday sweet baby boy!! We’ve enjoyed watching you grow throughout your first year and are excited to see the changes ahead for your 2nd year!! Love you lil Hayden!!
Decorations look great! I SO want a cricut!!
ReplyDeleteThat 'favorite local bakery' doesn't happen to be Lorita's does it?! I SO miss her cookies!!
