My Little Man Turns {ONE}

It has been one BUSY weekend! Not only did we celebrate Easter yesterday but we also celebrated our chubby little mans 1st birthday!  I can not believe how fast a whole year went!  It was a very bitter sweet feeling.  I miss the cuddle time with a newborn, but not the colic :) I love the age the Jacob is at...he is such a ham!  He makes us laugh with all the crazy faces he has!  I have never felt more blessed than the day I became a mother! He is truly a blessing in our lives.  We feel so honored that the Lord has given us such a beautiful baby boy to raise!!

We had such a fun time putting together an Elmo & Train 1st Birthday Party with family and some of our closest friends......



Isn't this cake made by my mom awesome!! Jacob loved his little Elmo character...he wanted to keep grabbing it!


Remember these Elmo Oreo Bon Bon Pops we made for his party?? 



The fireplace area needed a little something, so I made a Birthday banner to make it a little more festive. You can find the tutorial (HERE)


He loved his HUGE Elmo from his Aunt Faithy!  Do you like his ELMO TIE SHIRT?  Do you want to make one?  (CLICK HERE) for the tutorial!





Wondering why we haven't given him cake before now?! :)


The little guests didn't leave without a treat too....remember the cute little Elmo favor bags I made...well the kiddos loved them! TUTORIAL HERE


We had such a great evening with our little munckin! How in the world did this little boy get so big so fast??
