Happy Day!

Happy Birthday, Caleb! We had a fun time celebrating Caleb's first birthday. We had the family over to our house for a cookout out back. As Maddie says, we had "hammembers" and hotdogs. (Susie, if you're reading this, can you send me the family picture we took so I can add it?)

Maddie got to blow out the candle for Caleb. Here she is offering her little "ff."

With a little help from Daddy she finally blew it out! Yay!

Time for cake! ...Do I really have to eat this stuff?

Fine, I'll try it.

Nope, don't like it!
Apparently we don't do first birthday cakes well. Maddie cried over hers and Caleb was not interested in anything but getting out of the high chair.

However, Maddie has since figured out that cake is good!

Besides blowing out the candle, Maddie also got to help open the gifts...

...and play with the toys....

I think Maddie gets two birthdays this year!

Here is Maddie giving Caleb the gift she picked out at the store.

And here's Caleb doing his celebratory birthday stand with Maddie cheering him on.
