Happy Birthday Maxton!!!

Max had an awesome 1st birthday! Thank you to our friends and family that helped make it great! I can't believe its already been a year- its flown by! Its been fun and crazy and we love our little Max more and more everyday!
Max started off his big day grinning as usual! He is always so happy in the mornings when I get him out of bed!
I tried to make his birthday special in silly little ways- This is his EXTRA bubbly bubble bath! He also got to have Fruit Loops for breakfast instead of Cheerios. And for lunch, he got his new fav, Peanut Butter and Jelly! Yum!!!

We had a little party for Max and he did pretty well trying to unwrap the presents. He definetly enjoyed to bows more than the wrapping paper though- Funny kid!
I made Max a dinosaur cake (with my mom's help)-Looked pretty cute!

Max was really hesitant to dive into the Dino's head. He sat just dipping his fingers into the icing-

I tried to help him understand the concept of getting dirty-
He caught on quickly and then enjoyed munching on his cake and throwing it around as he excitedly waved his hands in the air- What a cute little mess!
All in all it was a fun day! We are definetly looking forward to the upcoming year to see how much more Max will change- He is now almost walking. He definetly got brave today and walked quite a bit without us coaxing him to do it. Crazy! We love you Max!!!

He is SO cute and he looked older on that day. The hair, the clothes and the walking attempts.
That is pretty fun how you made it special with bubble bath & special foods, You are a good mom to the little man. Both of you are good parents.
