Isaac's First Birthday!

One year ago, we first held Isaac in our arms. 
Friday, October 16, 2009

Even though we had to leave the hospital without him, we will always be thankful that we were able to care for Isaac for the first 3 days of his life.

The poem on Isaac's birthday invitation says it all....he's brought us joy & laughter, just like his name means.  I can't IMAGINE life without Isaac...this past year has been incredible!  My only complaint is that it has gone WAY too fast!  How is he already one?!?!
We had such a fun day celebrating Isaac's birthday!  Here are a *few* of my favorite pictures from his big day!
(And, I had nearly as much fun preparing for his birthday...it's amazing how many cute, over-the-top birthday ideas are out there!  My mom kept reminding me that I'll never have time to do this much "adorableness" for subsequent babies' birthdays!  Ha!)


 We had a few friends over for lunch to celebrate Isaac's birthday!

Opening a present from his buddy Lake--look at how excited Lake is!

Isaac seemed to love when everyone sang "Happy Birthday" to him!


YUM!
After we all took a long nap, we had another party!  Our family came over for supper and more cake!
Isaac with his Grandma Missy, Grandma Kal, and Grandma Susie (who was here for the whole week before Isaac's birthday helping us get ready!)
Apparently this is what Isaac thought of the birthday hat that I spent 2 hours making...right after this picture he ripped it off his head!


Happy Birthday...again!  He was mostly interested in trying to touch the candle!



I think his highchair sign should have said "I am DONE" at this point!  He was exhausted from so much celebrating!  Even though the smash cake isn't on his tray in this picture, he really didn't eat it all!  It was huge!  He spent most of his time picking the fondant polka dots off and eating them!

Of course, there were a lot of construction-themed gifts with our family! 


What one year old doesn't need his own 4 wheeler?!?  You should hear the sounds it makes!




Happy Birthday, Isaac!  We love you!
