birthday boy.

Graham had such a good birthday on Saturday. We woke up and had his favorite breakfast... pancakes... then we got everyone dressed and opened our family gifts together! The kids helped him open the gifts since he's still such a little guy... He loved all of his new toys! He loves to push his new dump truck all by himself! He especially loves the balls that go inside the mixer...
I think his favorite toy of the day is his new drum that plays music. It's so fun! All of us have had a good time with this toy... when you throw the beanbags in, it makes different instrument sounds!

He's going to look so handsome in the new clothes from his Christensen family! Thanks, mom!Our friends, the Albrechts, were nice enough to bring over a gift for him in the afternoon... he has had lots of fun with his new farm animal pegs and pegboard. What a fun little gift!

We've carried on both of our family traditions of eating the birthday child's favorite thing for dinner on their special day. Since we can't all have rice cereal with applesauce and bananas... we opted for Thick and Creamy Mac and Cheese. It was a big hit for our little man!

So stinkin' cute! I love first birthdays! I think you are one of the most put together moms I know. All those games at Grahm's party. I think I rock when I have just the party...

Does Graham's hair have red in it? The pics today look like it does!

I think his hair will be blonde like Gracie's. All of their hair has looked like it has red in it at one time or another... they might have a little thanks to Jeff... strawberry blonde would be SO cute!
