Sweet Sweet Baby!

I couldn't resist adding this one! How sweet is he!?

Books!

Zach's new thing is pulling the books off his bookshelf! It is the cutest thing ever!
Now if I could just train him to put them away!

Happy St. Patrick's Day

Zach and I had a wonderful St. Patrick's Day! We went to Gymboree this morning and then headed to lunch with Rowan and Michael. Zach did so great today! He only had one nap!!! He was an angel! I was so proud of him. Who knows if it will stick but we will see where this transition takes us.

I thought I would post a few picks of where we were this time last year...

Lil' Chris!

Look at me now!

Big Boy!

Happy St. Patrick's Day everyone!

A Birthday Celebration!

We had such a wonderful time celebrating Zach's first birthday with family and friends! On Saturday we had a house full of people which meant the world to Chris and I. Zach loved opening presents and eating cake. He had such a wonderful day!

His favorite was the envelopes from the gifts!

He loved his cake!
But definitely needed a bath when he was finished! Thank you Granna for getting me all clean!

Of course the adults needed to play too! The moon bounce was a huge hit and I got to enjoy it with a few of my favorite girls!

My Girls!

Aunt Mary, Jordyn, Zach and Mommy!

Becca and Zach!

The night had the most perfect ending...Mauzy giving Zach his bottle before bed!

PRICELESS!

The celebration didn't end there. The next day we went to Granna's where more partying was to be had!

Seriously! Why the bows mom?

Mauzy and Becca helping Zach with his new book! Curious George...but of course!

My happy little boy is 1...and I just can't believe it!

I just don't understand why my mommy does these things to me!

Becca and Zach! Yes Great Mauzy...please take that ridiculous bow out of my hair!

Happy Birthday my handsome little guy!

Mommy and Daddy love you very much!

First Birthday Party!

We had such a great time celebrating Zach's first birthday! He seemed to really enjoy himself too! I can't believe my baby is 1!

The Backyardigans Guitar was the hit toy of the night!

Daddy walking him upstairs to get ready for the cake!

Happy Birthday to you! Happy Birthday to you!
Happy Birthday dear Zach! Happy Birthday to you!

At first he really wasn't sure what to do...but he got the hang of it quickly!

The Finished Product!

All great practice for our big party on Saturday!

Happy 1st Birthday Zach!

It's hard to believe that a year ago today, my little monkey was born! This has truly been the best year of my life. Chris and I feel so blessed to have such an amazing son!
