Birthday Boy!

It's hard to believe, but our baby boy is one year old today. What a fun day we had celebrating his birthday. We began the day with our family tradition - birthday breakfast at IHOP. Joshua enjoyed his birthday pancakes very much.
Later in the day we celebrated more with good friends and family. In standard nautical theme, Craig and I made a sailboat cake for Joshua. We had so much fun staying up making the cake and decorating it - only to undergo demolition in a matter of seconds!

Pure Joy!! Birthday cake for the first time! He smashed into it and after a few moments he raised his cake filled hands and squealed in excitement!

Aw! Happy Birthday, Joshua! And hello to everyone! Suzanne just told me that you have a blog, so I came on over right away. :)

We just had a baby boy and we named him Joshua, too. He was a real miracle baby for us. Here's his story: http://littlechristianmusings.blogspot.com/2005/11/baby.html

Hey Nicole! Congrats on your little boy's birth.

Suzanne - the cake came from www.coolestcakes.com. We had so much fun trying to duplicate it!

I just noticed that you were smart enough to take the high chair liner off. :) We didn't do that. What a mess!
