We celebrated Smith all week for his birthday. Having an October birthday in a football family proves a little challenging. So we planned his party around game days and just celebrated him all week. Beginning with his actual birthday. Russ took off for the week, and we were delighted to spend the morning with our little family.
We got Smith up for his first birthday surprise - a sugary, sprinkled donut! He was so intrigued and after inspection dug right in! I think we have a sweet tooth on our hands. And that's close to how many actual teeth he has on his first birthday...2 little bottom teeth. Sweet boy!
After breakfast, he enjoyed playing with his gifts. I have learned so many things along the way after my first baby. And one of those is don't even worry about wrapping the gifts! Stick a bow on it and be done. Haha!
We were so happy to have Susu, Kay Kay, and Hughes come visit us while Millie Janalee was in school. They took us all out to eat lunch and even brought a few surprises for the birthday boy.
And no birthday is complete without cake and lots of icing. After lunch, we lit another candle and sang another version of "Happy Birthday" for our one year old. He wasn't sure at first, but ended up devouring the cupcake.
That's a happy birthday boy!
It still blows my mind how quickly this year has flown. I've been beyond terrible at documenting Smith's little life on the blog, but I have cherished every moment and memory made! Such a blessing to our family. We love him so!
Happy Birthday, Smith!
