Aden's 1!!

On sunday we decided to celebrate Aden's first birthday! (a day early)! He was so good all day. Of course he decided he needed to be up @ 530 am! So we got started early. We had a bbq with family and a few close friends. He had a blast with all the attention. He was so funny opening presents, everyone gave him a gift bag, so he would stick his head in the bag and see if there was something he liked, if not then he would toss it aside and go for the next one! He got lots of clothes so nothing to exciting for him. He did get some toys, that are more his age appropriate now. And Aden did awesome with the cake! At first he wasn't sure what to do. Then we took his hands and put them in the cake to show him. Then daddy gently put the cake in his face, and then he went for it. And he missed his afternoon nap so he wasn't all the way with it at cake time, but he did get messy. I'm so glad we did the party at our house, cause after the cake he went right to the shower! All in all it was a good day, even though we were tired and snapped at our parents a few times. (not on purpose) we were both on about 5 hours sleep and still fighting a cold. Now were looking forward to Hawaii!! less than 3 weeks then ALOHA!!
