Happy birthday to you...

So we made it! One year down. More importantly one birthday party done! He made it through without any major problems! He even stayed up till 8:30! A real party animal. He was fascinated with all the toys. But to my surprise he wasn't that interested in ripping off the wrapping. We will have to practice between now and Christmas.


He enjoyed his cake (his Abuela made it), especially licking the whipped cream off the Sesame Street characters. He managed to get a lot of it up his nose. But it didn't seem to deter him too much. He was also in love with the balloons we got him.


I think he is going to be pretty disappointed when he wakes up from his nap to discover only Cris and I here. He really liked playing with his new cousin, Julia and he always loves seeing his grandmother (both of them!). I think he will spend a bit of time crawling around looking for everyone.


But now the important part. Here are some shots from last night!
