...way back in December that is. AND, even though life was at its craziest the week he turned 1 (we were moving our stuff to a storage unit in a week, getting ready for a long vacation, the temperature outside was in the teens, and we were still managing and dealing with a broken pipe and apartments getting flooded- that happened on his actual birthday), we did indeed still celebrate his birthday.... a few weeks later while on vacation at Eagle Crest with John's family. Grandma Sue and Aunt Heather went out and found a cute little cake, a candle, some ice cream of course, and some decorations and we sang happy birthday to our little Bear and let him have his way with the cake. He wasn't really into grabbing for it with his hands, but then he somehow got a hold of a fork and started going crazy making a mess of it! I think Jackson was more into the whole eating the actual cake & ice cream (he is our sugar-aholic, just like his mom), but Baron liked making a mess and being sang to! The whole reason I bring his birthday back up though, is because the other day I was looking through pictures figuring out what I haven't blogged about yet from our trip and I came across a few birthday party pictures. So here they are!
The Cake
So I tried offering him a cupcake instead (while Jackson snuck in some frosting). He looked at the cupcake while deciding what he wanted to do,

and decided it would be fun to smash the cupcake into the cake. (it's the brown mound on the cake). Then he discovered the forks next to the cake...
