Our baby boy turned 1 year old today, and we couldn’t be more excited about keeping a child alive for a whole year. Yay! In preparation for the day I purchased fun decorations, ordered cakes, and planned a few parties for our families and friends. Tonight we were supposed to have the neighbors over, but Carter has been sick for six days now and I decided to spare the neighborhood of the virus that seems to strike whomever comes into contact with Carter. So, our party turned into a microwaved dinner for Matt and me, mashed potatoes, applesauce and crackers for Carter (since bland starches and low acidic fruit is what the doctor’s office has recommended), followed by cake for the tot…and Matt and me hoping there would be a little piece of cake left for us. It was a quaint little evening and as you can tell from the photos and video below, we made the best of it and enjoyed ourselves.
Today is also the 2nd anniversary of the day Matt and I committed ourselves to one another and it brings back thoughts of our wedding day. I’d still love to go back in time and do the day all over again. Not only because it was an awesome day (the best day of my life), but also because Matt is still the only man I want to spend my life with. I know, that sounds cheesy, but it’s true.
Love that boy! Such a great video………you guys are great parents
How fun it was to see Carter. I haven’t got to see him since Ryan’s birthday. He is sooooo cute!
