Davis is ONE!

Davis celebrated his 1st Birthday on April 17th! I can't believe it has been a year since he was born. It was fun to reminisce about the past year but even more exciting to look towards what's ahead with Lily and Davis. Since Davis started crawling so early I was certain he would walk early too. Lily started walking at 10 1/2 months so I thought that Davis would walk even before that. 10 months came and went. 11 months came and went and when his 1st birthday arrived and he wasn't walking I was just so surprised. I knew he would walk soon but was kind of hoping that he would be walking for his birthday party since it was going to be at the Auburn city playground. No such luck, so he sat in the dirt! His party was great though. We had lots of great friends come and celebrate with us. The weather was pretty good, but it was super windy which caused a little havoc. First, one of the little tents we had got blown over and broke (it was borrowed so we knew we would need to replace it), secondly, the 25 balloons I had gotten got all tangled in the distance from the car to the tables so we just had a big clump of balloons. And lastly, the cake that I had ordered turned out not as I expected. It was a pull-apart cupcake cake that was supposed to look like 2 balloons but when I went to pick it up it was just a random cloud-like shape. So, they redid it in 15 minutes and it still looked pretty terrible. So you won't be seeing any pictures of that cake. Instead you will see pictures of the cake that I made for Davis myself (which I am proud of). Other than those 3 snafus the party was great. Here are some shots that were taken by our friend. I am so thankful that he grabbed my camera and got these shots otherwise we wouldn't have much to show for Davis' party. So, thank you Stephen and Kellie for helping at the party!!
