Boston's 1st Birthday Bash!

Boston turned one!! And it was probably the fastest year of my life. How did he get so big so fast!? 

At one year old, he is the happiest boy around. He loves to play games and tease others with his cute smiles, and playing with his sister is his new favorite activity (Solana calls him her pet puppy).  He also loves music! He is drawn to anything that makes noise and especially loves it if he can make music. He also just learned to dance and its so cute (and hilarious) to watch.  Boston loves loves loves to cuddle and be held.  He is the best eater, and will eat almost anything, except bananas. 

He weighs 23 pounds and is 31.5" tall.  Everywhere we go we get the comment "He is tall for his age!" Yes, he is, and we have no idea where that gene came from, but its fun. 

He is also the biggest climber (never a problem with his sister) but oh man all he wants to do is climb on top of everything!! So we are adjusting to that. He just loves being up high and going fast. So I'm assuming a typical boy, but we are still learning. 

Happy 1st Birthday Bos-man!!

We did an all things "B" themed birthday bash. Lots of blue, balloons, banners, brownies, bunnies, bears, blueberries, blackberries, black bean hummus and blue chips. And of course, blue cake balls. 

I was so proud of his cake that I made, and I was so grateful my good friend Ashley taught be how to do it! It was my first time decorating a cake from scratch.  Yay for me, and super yay for Ashley being so nice to share her talents :)

So handsome….

My little Bostie boy. 

Solana was more excited for his birthday than he was. But I think she was just excited to eat cake pops.

But she did have a blast, especially "helping" him open all his presents :)

The birthday party crew, well minus grandparents...

He didn't love it, he took a couple of bites and was over it. I even put pineapple in it, in hopes that he would like it more (he loves pineapple) but no sweets for this little man.  He made better progress once he got a fork, but he really hated having frosting on his hands, and cried until I wiped it off.

Hmmm…still not so sure.

He was spoiled by lots of family and its so nice that he actually has boy toys now! Here he is standing on the baby grand piano that Grammy and Grandpa Brad got him, which this little music man loves.  

Happy Birthday to the Best Little Buddy Ever!!! We love you Boston!!!
