AJ Turns 1!

1 year ago today our little Anthony Jr. blessed our lives by entering the world and becoming our baby boy. It is such a cliche to say that I don't know where the time went. It seems like yesterday and yet it also seems like longer than a year. All I know is that he has been such a joy to have in our family and our lives. He makes me laugh every day and brings a tear to my eye just thinking about his bright beaming smile. We love you our Mister, Mister. Our Man of Lamancha. Our little squeaker buddy back seat driver boy! Muah!

Our Big Boy!

Of course we had to throw the boy a party! Today we had about 10 kids over for hot dogs, Cheetos, macaroni and fruit salad and cupcakes. And even though we knew AJ would not really be able to use it we rented a bounce house for Cienna. Living across the street from a park she is tortured every weekend by all of the kids getting bounce houses for their parties. Unfortunately with her birthday being in January it isn't exactly prime weather conditions for an outdoor party. So we wanted to do that for her. Turns out AJ loved it too!

And if you are curious...AJ inhaled the entire cupcake! He wasted no time making short work of a cupcake that never had a chance. Poor cupcake.


Going...going...gone!

The Fam with the Birthday Boy

Lastly we opened presents. Not quite sure what AJ's favorite gift was because I think that he really loved each and every one. He has been enjoying his new "whip" that Granny bought him this week. I think the rest was just icing on the cake!

Well that is it. Sorry about all of the pictures. But I am under contract by the grandparents to make sure that they get all of the details!
