Marcus' 1st Birthday

Well here goes the second blog. Let's see if this works. My baby boy turned 1 already. I procrastinated long enough, I guess I thought if I didn't acknowledge the fact it would just go away. Anyway we planned to have his birthday party on his actual birthday. Since Cameron has just recently started to get back in touch with his father and family, we chose to have them over for his birthday party. I was so nervous, I am not a very good host, but I think it went well. Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves, including Marcus.

This child was fully dressed. It never fails, when we are at Grandpa and Grandma's house, we have to take some off because it is warm there. His Aunt April decorated all the balloons.

He was loving his balloons. This picture was taken before he popped one. He didn't want much to do with them after he popped it in his hands. He was such a busy body. And there was people everywhere so he wasn't sure which way to go. However, he is very comfortable at Grandpa and Grandma's house so he knows where he doesn't usually get to go and that is where he headed. Marcus being the first grandson that my father has got a tractor. Funny thing is his favorite hat is Grandpa's John Deere, but mommy love Massey Ferguson.

The last two pictures above are the start of his own personal birthday cake and then the aftermath of the cake. I knew he would dig in so I removed his clothes and then gave him a bath afterwards. He was so mad at me when I took what was left of the cake away. He was so funny, as you can see from the pictures, he had two forks, one in each hand. Enjoy!
