Birthday Bash

Last weekend we celebrated Cade's first birthday! It was a great time and now that its over, its hard to believe that I have a one year old. Really? Where did this past year go?? I remember the long days of no sleep and wondering what was wrong when he cried and thinking to myself that it isnt going to get easier for a long time. People kept telling me how fast time goes when you have children and now I see why.. Cade is sooooo much fun to be around and is already starting to charm those around him. Not only does he have me wrapped around his finger but so many others as well. We had his one year checkup this week and Cade weighs 24 pounds and is 32 inches. He is in the 95th percentile for height and 75th for weight.
Hard to believe he was this tiny not so long ago..



And now I have a big boy with so much personality and spunk...


Here are some pictures from his birthday...

Our friends Melissa and Micah

Cade's Aunt Rosa made his turtle cake! It was adorable.


Cade and daddy playing with the ball..also Cade's first word!


It came time for the cake and he wasnt so sure about it

Daddy was trying to get him to taste it

And he didnt like it!! Haha he cried afterwards..

Overall he had a great birthday! Surrounded by family and friends that love us..what more could we ask for. I wanted to thank my mom and my sister for helping with all the decorations and planning with me! They are awesome!! I also wanted to thank Joseph, my brother, for taking all the pictures! He is so sweet to do that for me..


Cade loves his uncle Joe!!
