9.7.13 Birthday Parties

Today is Zachary's Actual Birthday. I can't believe how quickly the past year has gone and my baby is now 1!!
 
Zachary really likes an Elmo toy we have, so we decided to have an Elmo themed 1st Birthday party for him. I had fun doing the decorations and making his cake.  Zachary did really well with his cake.  He was a little timid at first, but quickly dug in.  It was really cute, he would take breaks in between bites to take a drink of milk. He started to get the hang of opening gifts too.

 


Wide awake at midnight.  Must be eagerly anticipating his party??!!

Alyssa picked the them of the Grinch this year.  She really doesn't pick anything girly or easy!  I stressed quite a bit on what to do about her cake and decorations.  I am really happy with how it turned out.  She really liked the cake and told me she loved it.  That is truly what matters.  She said the cake was delicious and that I am the best Mommy ever.  That made me feel so good.  We had a Grinch Pinata (Alyssa says it's not a party without a Pinata.) and played pin the heart on the Grinch. We had "Who" Hash Dogs, "Who" Pudding, Grinch Cake Balls along with tons of cake and ice cream.
