Happy 1st Birthday Aiden!

That's right...today is Aiden's first birthday!!!!! He was such a little trooper. He was so patient with everyone, especially mommy and daddy. We had a party at a pizza parlor up the street from our house and had a good turn out of close family and friends. I don't consider myself to be a complete weirdo about germs (I agree with the thought of a little dirt never hurt) but I could not handle Aiden touching the floor at the pizza parlor! He has been walking everywhere but when he falls, he will just start crawling. So we allowed minimal walking and a lot of passing around from person to person. =-) Aiden had lots of fun playing with the cake for sure!!!! I actually felt like we were at our wedding...so many people to visit with and a lot to do hahaha We were so happy that we had so many wonderful people with us to share Aiden's big day.

























Aiden looked SO handsome and even wore shoes all day!!! Today was the first day he walked with shoes on and did very well. We also had an AMAZING cake made from a fire captain's wife. You may not be able to tell from the picture, but the cake had incredible detail and was all edible! We were happy that Aiden was able to get such a cool personalized cake...hopefully we don't have to meet too high of expectations =-) Because the cake was so cool, we ended up having a small, simple (and free!) cake for Aiden.



It was a great day! Aiden has brought so much joy to us this year, we are just so excited for all the continued memories we will make as a family!
