Ryan's First Birthday

Daddy and Ryan in the jumper!

We celebrated Ryan's first birthday this past weekend! Wow, were we exhausted after all was said and done. Ryan was great the entire day and handled all the chaos quite well. Thank you to all our friends and family who made the party and we missed those of you who were not able to make it. We can hardly believe a year has almost passed. It seems like just yesterday we were trying to conceive, yet here we are with our beautiful baby boy who brings so much love and laughter to our lives. Though he won't actually turn a year until Christmas day, I've already begun thinking of what new and exciting journeys his second year will bring. I can hardly wait!

Ryan loved all his gifts. He hasn't stopped playing since he open them all.

More presents!

He really liked the wrapping paper.

Time for cake! Ryan wasn't quite sure what to do with it though.

.....but after a little prompting from mom.....

it was alllll over!

Time for a bath. Don't you love the cake face?

Just a silly boy!

After the party was over..... cousin Jennah pushed the birthday boy in his new car.

Hey Toots....keep pushing! :)

And at the end of a very long day....... we relaxed in a bath together.
