Where does time go? He was in my belly two weeks ago right? He can't be turning ONE?! I just can't believe how time flies, but I am so thankful we have had this year with him. What an amazing child. He is fun, challenging, amazing and perfect all wrapped up in that little body. What a treat it has been to watch him grow. We just had his first birthday party, and he had a blast! I went with the winter onederland theme, and decorated with white, silver and blue. Here are some of the pictures from the party. Thank you Beasch, Gran, Mammaw, Pappaw, Aunt Boo, Uncle Beeper, Aunt Sissy, and Carson for sharing this precious day with Jackson.
This was the sign that I made for his sweet birthday!
We decorated with white, silver and blue (don't know why the picture looks purple) and white lights and streamers!
We did cupcakes with sprinkles.
I made mugs for party favors for the fam.
His birthday sign
After the gift opening we had to play with them all. He loved his wagon!
Playing with his fun "popper" toy with his Gran and Carson
Here he is showing off his walking abilities for the family. What is so funny is that he had been walking some up until this party, but at the party he almost refused to crawl anywhere. He walked everywhere! And now, we are officially walking ALL over the place! I guess he needed his birthday and family to get him jump started.
His Beasch is giving the "smash cake" pep talk
He just went for it. He two fisted the thing and smashed it in his little fingers.
He shoved the whole thing in his mouth
He still wanted more and took some from his daddy!
What an amazing journey this first year has been. There have been so many moments to reflect on and to be thankful for. We have loved this experience and are so ready for the new adventures waiting for us.
It is officially the 16th so I have to give a shout out, "HAPPY BIRTHDAY BOYS!"
We have the big ONE and the big Twenty Nine! What a great day it is!
