Ride Retro Rocket!

Here is Evan enjoying his present from his Mommy and Daddy. It is a Radio Flyer Retro Rocket. The rocket has sound effects and lights and vibrating seat upon "blast-off" Very cool. Evan doesn't quite know to push himself forward with his feet yet, but he loves to sit while we push him. The sleeper he is wearing is a warm comfy gift from his cousin Tracy.

Evan is not a "get my hands messy" kind of guy so I am afraid I don't have any "cake smashed all over baby's face" 1st birthday pictures. I thought maybe there would be a miracle and he would some how find the frosting and cake delicious enough to dive right in. The extent of the frosting forey was his finger and the bit of icing you see here on the tip.

I put the rest of the cake on a spoon for him and he definately seemed to enjoy the cake more than the super-sweet frosting.

Family, friends through the years and friends with whom I started this new journey into parenthood came to celebrate Evan's birthday with us and we greatly enjoyed sharing the day with them.

Life is certainly a fun adventure with Evan and I am looking forward to the many "faces" of his emerging personality!

Do YOU Like Fig Newtons?

I like Fig Newtons.



I bet you like Fig Newtons, don't you?



You eat them like this.



Just shove them right in.



They are a bit crumbly.



That is why you should get the whole thing in your mouth at once.



Throw your hands in the air for Fig Newtons!
