The Big #1!

Our little Gabe turned one on August 25th. It was a bittersweet day for me. I am so happy to see him grow up, but at the same time its sad to see him not be my little baby anymore. We had a fun day planned for Gabe:

I blew up some ballons for him to play with and I'm happy to say they were a huge hit

Gabe didn't really know what to think about his presents. When he holds his hands and arms up like that, that is the classic "Gabe's-not-too-sure-about-what-is-near-him" pose.

Loves his "Chuck the Truck" and little ATV. So cute.

Again, check out Gabe's look of concentration. That's another classic Gabe look.

 That goat kept on trying to eat Gabe's clothes and it was making him crack up.

And .... HE LOVED THE CUPCAKE!

{P.S. I've been prepping him the last few months on making a mess. We practiced with pudding, jello, and whip cream. I'd say he was pretty prepared!}
