Pre-Birthday Birthday

We were in CT this past week for a visit with the fam. As much as we miss R on weeks when he is out of town it allows Z and me to travel and visit our loved ones. Considering how far we live away from everyone we are blessed to be able to see both families quite a bit. I am very lucky to be able to be a stay at home mom...it allows us tons of flexibility. We celebrated Z's first birthday on Friday night. Grammy made him an applesauce cake with whipped cream frosting. He had a candle and we sang happy birthday. He was not sure quite what to think of all the singing but he knew exactly what to do with the cake when he got his hands on it! We let him eat his fill and he had a serious sugar high after. It was SO cute. Z had a great time playing with his Auntie, Uncle Dan and Grammy & Gramps. His favorite game was taking D's hat off. Grampa's favorite game was Z's laughing Elmo. We would be trying to put Z to bed upstairs when we would hear Elmo laughing downstairs...that would be Grampa!
