1st Birthday Party

 Happy Birthday Finlee!

We did his party the day after his birthday so we still did a little cupcake on his actual birthday.

 He played with it more than ate it, but that was mainly because we had already fed him dinner.

 Pictures from the party!

I wanted to do a little something, but not too crazy because I'm just not like that. So I still did a little theme of vintage airplanes. We did a few snacks for the guests, trying to keep it simple.

 Finlee's cake. I tried the healthy kind, and honestly I wish I would have done the real thing. He didn't seem to like it much and the cake was kind of firm and the frosting super runny, oh well!

 Pictures from his birth to now!

 Playing with some friends

 All of us sang to him and he loved it!

 He ate more raspberries than the actual cake!

 He kept trying to push it off his tray, maybe he didn't like it!

12 Months old, One whole Year

 I took these pictures on his birthday, but it was a busy time getting things ready for the little party we did for him. We are still in shock that he has reached the one year mark. That's a big deal, and yet it has already come and gone.

Well this busy boy has been doing great! Learning and growing and having fun.

Family Pictures

 Our wonderful friend, Rebecca, took some family pictures for us and I love how they turned out!! We got a few of Finlee for his one year pictures. Enjoy!!

The Ever Changing Finlee

 His favorite place in the house is the stairs. He has gotten really good at climbing them and getting down. We haven't put up the gate to block them off because the only spot to put it would be at the 2nd to last step and if he climbs up to that and then falls back he would hit his head on the hard tile, so we just keep an eye on him.

 He in also quite the beggar when we are eating! But so cute.

We enjoyed a fun thanksgiving with my parents and sister. 

He loves clapping and in this picture, he was clapping with two toys in his hands. That's his new thing these days, crawling around with 2 toys in his hands.
