Well, it's true, our little boy is now a 1 year old toddler! I almost don't even want to say it because you hear it so often, but I understand now how fast it really goes! We have had a wonderful year! Andrew and I love being parents and the ways it's changed our lives. It's been more amazing than I ever dreamed to watch Gavin grow and learn. I know he probably has learned and developed similar to most children, but we feel like he's one of a kind and love teaching him and watching him change! We are so thankful for him and we love our little family!

Ready for a party!
We celebrated with a real firehouse party at the fire hall in Andrew's fire dept.! Lot's of family and friends came to join in on the fun! We ate firehouse chili, hot dogs, french fries, and dalmatian cupcakes! Everyone was able to play on and learn about the fire trucks which was a lot of fun! We had a slide show to music of Gav's first year, and of course there was cake and presents!! It was great to have both of our families together (minus a few siblings) since everyone is friends! It was a day to remember (at least for us...Gav will see pictures!!)

He didn't get very messy. He picked off all the frosting first!
Presents!!
One of his favorite presents was a jack in the box from Uncle Nathan Graham and Amber. He laughed so hard!
The big present...a rocking horse that daddy spent many hours making!!
