12 months old: part 2

december 6 fell on a thursday so we headed over to ella's for an early birthday breakfast before work to kick off their birthday celebration!  leanne had organized a little party with their park friends, so i stopped by briefly to join in the festivities - these sure are lucky babies to be surrounded by so much love!

john and i planned a little party at our house on sunday, and we were so thankful that all the grandparents could make it and tons of our friends too.  for the past couple of weeks, we've been working hard to clean up the garage and downstairs room so that the space would be presentable and useable for sunday.  countless hours later, the finishing touches of baby pictures, balloons and flowers were put in place, and we were able to hang out and enjoy our friends and family at the party.  with great weather, delicious food and wonderful company, we couldn't help but deem this party a major success!

very distrustful at first glance of this brown mud-like substance 

as soon as that chocolate hit his lips, he would not leave leanne alone!

from tears to cheers!
