Quick, I need something to swaddle!

Cuz I ain't got no baby no mo'. Frowwnnnn. He's one. Yup. And you know how everyone who has a child will without fail tell you that THEY CANNOT BELIEVE THEIR CHILD IS ONE(or 5, or 8, or 16)? AND LIKE, WHERE DID THE TIME GO??? Ugh, you guys it's true. It is so rudely and horribly true. It actually kind of freaks me out. Realizing that every parent is right - the time DOES fly. And I'm more of a linger kinda gal. A lets-stretch-this-out-as-long-as-we-can girl. A last-person-to-leave-the-party-cuz-i-dont-want-it-to-end chick. You get the idea. I feel like I'm already sending him off to college and hating on all his future girlfriends(watch yourselves lady babies!). Yeesh, this is gonna be rough.

He is my first ever one year old! And that is special business. So I threw him a PAR-TAY. A milk and cookies party. Oh you know it. I have been waiting to throw my child a party since I was born (or...for sure 11 months) I got the idea from my sister, who threw her youngest a milk and cookies party about a year and a half ago. It was so cute, and simple and I loved it. Hence the stealing of the theme. And who knew I'd ever throw a party complete with a theme??? (Me! I did!) And if I've ever threatened an insane amount of pictures before - you ain't seen nothin yet. This one totally takes the cake(pun?) It's the winner. The Valedictorian of picture posting! It's true, and I'm not even sorry about it. Ha, but seriously it's more pictures than anyone cares to see, it's mostly so I can look back and remember every little detail.

This is the man as I went in to sing him happy birthday when he woke up. Enjoy the blurry iphone pics.

And then I said, "Let them eat cake!" because I'm dramatic like that. And you know what people did? They ate cake. THEY ATE CAKE YO.

We stripped the lil man down to his dipe and let him at it. The little "cookies" on top of his cake are the smash cakes. Cute right?!? Here's 1 million pictures of proof. It's a sickness and I caaaaaaan't stop.

Um, illegal usage of pregnancy picture. Especially with cookie in hand. GOO! It really is that bad... even Kyler saw it and said "you look funny mom!" Either way it is horrid! How daaaaare you.

Really makes me miss Nash, (oh and you guys too). Loved the pics!!! Give Nash a big hug and kiss from Grandma and Grandpa (He loved the pics, too!) Actually, he felt bad for Nash and having all those pics taken.
