Connor's Birthday, Part 1: The Cake

Connor ushered in his first birthday with a gathering of family and friends. Uncle Michael, Aunt Terri and Aunt Suz all made the trip into Phoenix and helped with the party planning and preparations. Aunt Ginny, Cindy, Trevor, Annika and our next door neighbors all came over to celebrate with him. Connor spent a good portion of his time in the booster chair, eating cheese and crackers, hamburger, pasta and fruit. Here he is impatiently waiting for his ice cream cake.
Connor made short order of his cake. More to come on this topic.

We also celebrated "Big Brother Day" for Ian. He was also very interested in the ice cream cake.

I know you love the before and after shots. Connor was fingerpainting with the melted remains of ice cream.




There are some better shots of the handprint on Connor's forehead from other folks, but if you look carefully, you'll see it. Needless to say, he had to be changed out of his specky birthday outfit, which Aunt Terri chose for him. Oxyclean to the rescue!
