Birthday Party

Nate and his cousin, Mikey, both turned one-year-old this September, so we did a joint party to celebrate.
 
 Cousin Mikey ready to celebrate!
 
 
 It was a race car themed birthday party.
 
 

 Once again, the packaging is always the exciting part!
 
 
 Aunt Debbie and Uncle Mark got Nate his very own baby iPod complete with headphones.  To say these headphones were a hit would be an understatement.  He spent most of the day making sure they were with him at all times.
 
 
 "This pillow pal is crackin' me up."
 
 
 So imagine my surprise when we opened a Sit-n-Spin for Nate.  Holy Cow - I LOVED mine when I was little - they brought these things back?!?!?!?!  Awesome!  Sorry Nate, but I couldn't resist taking it for a spin myself.
 
 
 Once again, notice the headphones are still in hand???  However, Nate was willing to let Auntie TC give them a try.

 
 Gramps and Nate in his cake-eating shirt getting ready to dig in!
 
 
This is the point at which our camera battery met its death.  Bummer.  So we had a re-do a Sunday night with cupcakes so we could have some first birthday memories.
 
 "Oh yeah, just wait 'til this sugar really kicks in, Mom!"
 
 

"Sugar High!!!"
 


 Jack getting some frosting action too.
 
 
 After a nice bath, Nate was ready to show off some more birthday presents.  Here he is pretending to be a car on his race track.

Pleased to know about the auspicious birthday party celebrations. Had a great time with my friends at the pool party organized by me at one of the sea located Chicago event venues some weeks before? Had fun playing games and dancing to the beats of professional Dj.
