Happy Birthday Kyle!

I have so many talented friends and I benefit greatly from it.  Marcie just happened to bring her camera over to our house for Kyle's birthday and got some wonderful shots from the day. We went with a puppy dog theme for the big guy.  It's hard coming up with a theme for the first birthday because the kid isn't into much. The one thing he is obsessed with other than me (and I didn't think a party with my face printed all over the napkins was appropriate) is the dog.  He loves Petey.  And he loves going for Petey's food.  He hears the girls set the bowl down after feeding him and he crawls as fast as he can to get there and either dump it out, throw the kibbles into the water and watch it splash, or better yet...eat it.

 So we tried to make his cake look like a bowl full of kibbles, using cocoa puffs.  

 We had a house full of Aubrie and Emilie's friends.  Kyle doesn't have too many friend yet due to him being the third child and we haven't started MDO yet and that's where we find the best of friends.  :)

 He didn't dive into the cake like we were hoping he would.  He just picked off the cocoa puffs and ate them.

 We can't believe we have a one year old on our hands.  My friend Colleen said that she feels like Kyle is the same size that he was when he was born, he's just gotten older.  I couldn't have explained it better myself.  My big beefcake is one.  This year went WAY too fast.  

These last couple pictures are ones that I took, but you probably didn't need me to tell you that.  :)  We had puppy dog cupcakes that Adam and Steve helped me assemble the night before.  As much as I hate making cake and cupcakes, these were pretty cute.  

 And last we have Kyle's best friend, Pete.  Petey was actually given to us by Andrew as a wedding present and Petey acts like a puppy whenever Andrew comes around.  The cute girl is Andrew's precious daughter, Anna-Sophia.  I caught them all having a moment on the stairs and grabbed my camera. 

More to come.  Love to all!
