The day has arrived. My baby is ONE today! It has been the fastest year of my life. It feels like I just gave birth to this sweet boy yesterday! I'm glad it wasn't yesterday. He has brought so much LOVE & JOY into our home. It has been a fabulous year.
We have enjoyed an easy going, calm day. After we dropped Garrett off @ preschool, we went & ordered Brody his own 6 in. birthday cake from Safeway. Kind of a bummer that they don't do the free birthday cakes anymore. The lady @ the Bakery gave him a cookie (w/ my permission) & he went to town. He hasn't had very many sweets up until this point. Ummm yeah, we'll just say that he LOVED the cookie. We have hung out, read books & did the lunch thing @ home. It has been a nice morning/afternoon.
We ended the day with cupcakes & presents. Aunt Heidi & the girls called to sing Happy Birthday to Brody. It was so cute, he was singing with them & didn't want to give the phone back.
At 12 months this is what Brody is up to:

Congrats on surviving the first year. It goes so fast, as you know. Happy Birthday Brody!
Hope you had a great birthday, Brody! Such a cute little boy .. a busy one at that (I agree, Lisa!) Can't believe he's in a size 4 diaper already.
Happy Birthday to Brody! You made it with 4 boys Raimi! You are amazing. Can't wait to celebrate with you!
Wow! Happy Birthday to Brody! We just celebrated Katie's birthday last Friday. But she is a little peanut! She barely weighs 17 lbs and can still fit a size 2 diaper! Well, I guess it's good for a girl to be smaller. :)
