Happy Birthday Nolan!

I've been so caught up in my own drama that I hadn't done my post about my baby's first birthday! It turned out to be a great day. I successfully put on the small birthday party that I wanted for him, and might I add, he had a blast! It was almost like he knew it was his birthday. He woke up excited and had energy the whole day. Didn't cry once at his party, and took his nap right before guests started arriving so he wouldn't be grouchy. He dozens of gifts (which I still need to do the thank you cards for) that he loved immediately.

Everyone that know and love him came, except for a few unmentionables...but that's a different story. I'm so thankful that he has all these people in his life that care about him and want to see him become successful. They're the same people that cared about me when I was growing up.

He also had his first piece of cake that, like mommy, he instantly devoured. Well, more so the icing than the actual cake part... He hasn't really gotten the concept of ripping the wrapping paper off the gifts, but we'll see what happens at Christmas, which I'm excited about since it's his real first one he's been able to enjoy. Last year he was a newborn. I'm happy he was able to enjoy his birthday, and after all the excitement he slept the night away. Happy 1st Birthday Baby Nolan!

His first piece of birthday cake!
