HAPPY 1ST BIRTHDAY COLE!!
What did our Very Hungry Caterpillar eat at his party?
1 slice of watermelon
2 hot dogs
3 strawberries
some apple bits
and a lot of cake!
I was shocked this kid didn't just devour his cake in one big bite. But I think it was because he was literally stuffed to the brim with all of the other food he ate. So we actually did two cake eating sessions. The second one was a bit more exciting.
He really liked the M&Ms on the bottom of the cake. It took a lot of convincing to get him to try the actual cake.
Grandma Gwen couldn't handle the amount of frosting he was eating. She had to wipe him off. So funny.
The bounce house may have been the highlight of Cole's party. It was definitely his favorite part! He absolutely loved it! He attacked it just like he attacks the playground. He was bouncing and flipping all over the place. A big thanks to the Hill's for renting it out to us!
BEST DAY EVER!
Presents! Cole loved every single one of his presents. He did get really mad at me though because I didn't let him play with each one long enough before we moved on to the next one.
He got completely spoiled. I like to think it means he is just really, really loved.
We had an arts and crafts table for the kiddos to make their very own Very Hungry Caterpillars.
Of course Ben recruited Jason to help him paint his.
Ben wasn't much in the mood for pictures. Big shock. But his best buddy Brynner was!! Brynner's new thing is "power poses." Pretty awesome if you ask me!
Ahhh, love! Today would not have been possible without our Daddy!
This necklace was my present to myself for Cole's birthday. It says, "You are my sunshine." There is also a little "c" hanging on the chain. It is so perfect. It reminds me every day how lucky I am to have such a sunshine baby.
Aunt Kara with Sally and Adri.
They were scoping out the treat table first. Can you blame them? Most of us are die hard Cougar fans. Today was also the big BYU vs. Utah game. Sadly, it didn't end well for us.
Our lone little Ute was a little grumpy from his nap.
Did we plan the stripe thing? Nope! I guess we must be family.
Ben only smiles for pictures when Jason is in them with him.
Happy Birthday little man! We love you so so much!
Thank you for being our sunshine!
