Cole just turned ONE!!! I can't believe how fast this year has gone by. I know that sounds cliche but DANG!! It seems like just yesterday they were slicing me open and yanking him out of me:) We ended up having his birthday party at Tomiyasu Elementary School. Funny huh? We intended on having it at a park but it was packed with people when it came time to have his party. I even joked earlier in the day and said we should just have it at the school because it is right around the corner and there is grass and a playground for the kids. Louisa's boyfriend's mom Debbie (got that?) is a teacher and has a master key to the school gate locks. How lucky are we! We were just squeezing through an opening until she showed up and saved the day! My sister Sarah and step sis Amber flew down for the occasion and they were SO MUCH HELP. I think Cole had some idea that the party was all about him. He gave a huge wave to everyone as they arrived. He played on the big kid playground with his dad and ate pizza and cake. He made out like a bandit with a ton of awesome toys and clothes. I think it was the greatest birthday of his life:) Here are some pictures:
Just being cute:)
Waving hello at everybody:)!
Eating Gampa's pizza.
Opening one of many presents. He was wearing a hat that says "first birthday".
He had his own mini bundt cake from Nothing Bundt Cake. If you haven't had a bundt cake from here...YOU MUST IMMEDIATELY.
Here he is getting ready to tear it up!
Oh yeah...chocolate!
A Chocolate coma soon set in.
He shared his cake with Gampa.
Happy boy!!

Blogger is not letting me put any more pictures on this blog for some reason so that's all for now. I love my boy and he is AWESOME!! We had an amazing day and I am so thankful for all of the people who shared his big day with us!

Looks like it was a lot of fun! Happy bday Cole! The cliche "time flies when you're having fun" needs to be changed to "time flies when you have kids!"
That's awesome Nan. Happy Birthday Cole! Did he get that "oh my god I'm tasting chocolate for the first time and I love it!" look on his face? How long were you picking chocolate cake boogers from his nose?
I love that picture of Jordan,Andrew and Cole! I would love a copy.
