Crew’s 1st Birthday

 We had a farm theme for Crew’s birthday.  We went to Wheeler farm, ate cake, looked at the animals, and climbed on the farm equipment.  Family from all over came to celebrate.  It was perfect weather, and all the kids had fun!

I made the same cake my sister made for her little boy.  It was easy, but it took all evening to make. 

Crew just poked at it, and then took off the graham crackers,  he didn’t really want to eat it.  Here he is with a red mouth.  There was so much red dye in the frosting, that when we wiped him down later he looked like he had a red sunburn. 

This is when we knew Crew was done!  I haven’t had one child yet that hasn’t cried while eating their cake.

 

Crew liked his gifts, and so did the other kids!

I made little gift bags with farm animals and farm animal masks.  Here is Oakley wearing her cow mask.

Crew loved touching the animals at the farm.

The girls loved running around and climbing on the equipment.

    They especially loved the rabbits.

  It was a really fun day at the farm!

One Year Ago

June 3, 2009

A miracle happened and our family was blessed with a little boy! Loving Big Sister.

Proud Daddy!

Suspicious and Curious.

When Crew joined us, our lives changed for ever!  Our family was complete.  The joy we have experienced this past year is indescribable.  He has been so happy and delightful!  He loves to laugh, smile, giggle, clap, and wrestle.  He is boy through and through.  He loves hitting the girls in the face, pushing cars, and throwing things.  He hates getting his hair (fuzz) styled, his diaper changed, and don’t even think about changing his clothes.  Though I must admit, his pre-Madonna sisters have dressed him up like a girl on numerous occasions.  (Wait, so have his mom and aunts.)  We love having a little boy!!
