Let the party begin

My little man is almost one. I know it is so cliche to say, but where did my baby go? Why does the time have to go by so quickly?It just makes me want to love and squeeze on him that much more knowing that this baby stage goes by way too quickly. We had his first, first birthday party with Dave's family last Sunday. It was also Kristin's birthday, so the lucky duo got to celebrate together-complete with a train cake, and a homemade cherry chip cake.
Joshua and his Memor

Birthday girl with Audrey (Audrey wanted it to be her birthday so badly).

Opening gifts (Joshua has a love/hate relationship with this tiger).

Cake time.

My sweet boy

Audrey giving Joshua his first taste of the goodness of sugar. Isn't that what older sisters are for?

He loved it, obviously.

Happy birthday Ritz and Joshua. I couldn't ask for a better sister-in-law or son. We love you.
