Liam's First Birthday!

I'm still having a hard time wrapping my mind around the fact that my BABY is one!  Liam's first year was the fastest year of my life.  It felt like I blinked, and August 18th was here.  We had a great time celebrating our littlest love!

Liam woke up to a room full of balloons, and enjoyed snuggling with his sisters and cousin.

We sang Happy Birthday to him before he ate his breakfast.  He thought it was hilarious!

After breakfast, he spent some time playing with his new toys from his birthday party.

We headed to the park for some more fun, and Liam's BFF, Amber, showed up with some food.   Liam approved of the french fries.

After a nap and some dinner, my parents and Grant's mom and Nannie came over for presents and cake.

Liam thought the gift we bought him was the coolest.  He even helped Daddy put it together!

Finally, it was time for cake!

We attempted a family picture before singing to him, but Liam had already spotted his cake and wasn't interested in looking at the camera. We tried, but his eyes kept following his cake!  I don't really blame him.  The cake was delicious!

He finally got what he wanted!

Then, he moved on to ANOTHER piece of cake. And another. He ate until he dropped.

After he finished, a bath in the nearest sink was needed.  He was covered head to toe, and had a great time smearing cake all over my sink and counter.  Let me just say I had to scrub the sink and counter after he went to bed!!!

After some snuggles with mommy and daddy, Liam fell into a deep sleep. He had a great first birthday!

Happy 1st Birthday, Liam!  You are so beautiful and you fill our world with so much joy.  We love you more than words can say! Love you forever, sweet boy!
