Birthday Day Pictures

Tobin's actual birthday, the 14th, fell on a Tuesday and seeing that we really don't have a huge network of friends in Stillwater, we kept the partying to a small roar. We invited our favorite neighbors, the Birdwells and the Bosmas, over for some ice cream, strawberries and shortcake. Tobin ate some shortcake, but no ice cream. I am not yet ready to introduce the great evil one, Sugar. I made the shortcake so I know there is very little of it in there, but even so, Tobin LOVED it! Tobin loved being the star of the show and soaked in all the attention.

It was a fun, laughter-filled evening and we enjoyed sharing our Tobin celebration with our new, good friends.

Look whose 1-year old today!

My favorite little boy in the whole world!

"Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you"

Candle blown out; cake torn to pieces.

Ready for his guests to arrive!

His smile just gets better with age!

A gift from the Birdwells...bless them, no batteries and no noise involved

Nursery Rhyme book and blocks from the Bosmas

Anna Grace is helping Tobin figure this gift opening thing out.

Loving it!

The Birdwells...his first unrelated babysitters. They are WONDERFUL!

Looking forward to the year ahead.

Don't grow-up too fast Tobin. We are enjoying the moment.
