Happy Birthday, Brixton!

We can hardly believe that Brixton is ONE year old! I only worked a half day and we spent some quality time together. I gave Brixton his present... ...which he was very happy with! And then I put him to work! After he helped me clean house, the whole fam damily came over to help us celebrate. We had quite a few presents leftover from his birthday party which we saved for him to open. But it's really hard to maintain a 1-yr old's interest too long...

This is the candle we used for Rowan's first birthday - I think this will be a tradition. We know how special these birthdays are :) It didn't take Brixton too long to figure out what to do with this cake! I think he could hardly believe his good luck! Ah, the sugar kicks in! Want some, Mommy? Hooray for birthdays!

Too bad Brixton wasn't that interested :( Don't worry...Bella, Lucy and all the other kids stepped up to help out! There were some minor technical issues with the "hanging" but the guys took care of it! Not all of the kids had a chance to hit the pinata, but I don't think anyone was too worried about it - all they wanted was the candy! Brixton had the most fun eating his birthday cake...as you can see here from the video: Here are the actual photos: Do you think he enjoyed it? It looks like he ate a smurf! The party was w...
