Happy Birthday Patrick!

So today our little man turned one! I have not yet blogged because it has been a busy, fun-filled day filled with only things that a one year old likes... Which means no cleaning, errands, or adult duties (that includes blogging) unless the baby was sleeping.

We spent the hours chasing balloons and little cars that move by themselves.... And isn't that amazing, you just pull it back and zoom! hours of fun! We were serenaded endlessly by singing dogs (thanks to that invention, our little girl can croon like Barry Manilow), loved the sparkly party hats of special stuffed animals, and opened presents one by one to have plenty of time to enjoy the gifts and the tissue paper. We rode in cars powered by our sister, had lots of good laughs nad generally had a ball. Oh, and we also had a lot of balls!

When it came time for cake- he wasn't shy- both hands in it and eventually face first- all the better to enjoy the frosting! Topped off by a dinner of popcorn (a family tradition around here on Sunday) and it's off to bed for two worn-out kids!

And although we couldn't be with our family today, we appreciate all the calls and packages that made our little man's day today so special! Thanks for all you did! We are so blessed to have the happiest of kids andbe able to enjoy our time together with our family. I could not think of a better way to spend such a special day! I'm posting teaser pictures today and hope to work on a video by the end of the week- some of the fun you have to see to believe!

So until tomorrow when it's all just a memory... Peace and love to all! Hope that you are having a "wheel" good time where you are too!
