Happy birthday dear Teddy, Happy birthday to YOU!!!!!!

Teddy's First Birthday Party!

Teddy's first birthday party was nothing short of amazing. We had all our VIP's on hand to help us celebrate. The people in our lives, blood related, or not are truly our family. Having family around is so important to us. The people in our lives are so incredible. We love all of them so much. Thank you guys for truly blessing us with your time, gifts and the honor of sharing our lives together.

Now here's the pictures!

The birthday boy!

Monkey cake for our monkey. Aunt Missy made it!

The birthday boy's high chair...ready for some smashing!

Papa Dunbar and Uncle Vic!

Mommy and Teddy

Gigi- Great Grandma Robbe

Teddy was a little uncertain how to take the flame in front of him and all those people looking at him and singing.

His little pout was cracking us up!

Then our little happy baby realized it was a FUN event and he started clapping along.

Go for it baby!

YUM!

Loving the cake and the birthday!

Teddy's favorite people...his grandparents!

Great Grandma Coffaro and Gigi!

Jimmy and Megan with their Godson

A kiss and some icing for Daddy!

The whole birthday group! Minus Tracy who was our amazing photographer! Thank you TCo for capturing our day so perfectly!

Present time! All the kids helped us unwrap them. Special thank you to Josie who was the biggest girl there and helped me the most!

Teddy is quite the shopper. He loves carrying around new clothes. And notice his wardrobe change? Two birthday outfits for our little monkey!

The kids were loving all the new toys!

This gift from Jimmy was 100% kid approved. You can't see it because the kids all flocked to it after we opened it!

On the move as always

Teddy's crazy coupe...he ended up with 2 of them. One from Mimi and Bubba and from Auntie M! This will be PERFECT because we can keep one inside and take the other one outside!

You wish kid! Give Aunt Missy her iPad back!

The crazy coupe from Mimi and Bubba came with a hitch and wagon! I can't wait until Teddy is in the drivers seat pulling his little bro or sis!

My twin cousin!

A final birthday pic rounding out the perfect day!

Let's call this one....Birthday Suit Photo Shoot!

Since it's Teddy's birthday, we decided to let him run around in his birthday suit for a half an hour before bed. I had to take the opportunity to capture my little cutie's nudey bootie! What can a 1 year old do naked??...

You can admire your cankles!  An easy and not so embarrassing start to the birthday suit photo shoot!
This one's for Auntie Megan!

You can read a book and as an added bonus, not care if your belly is hanging over!

You can tackle your mommy!

You can pose oh so cutely in a hat!

And give mommy 0.2 seconds before you try to rip off said hat!

You can stare out the window and not care if the neighbors see you.

You can of course take a bath...

And splishy splashy in the tub!

And last but not least....You can give some love to your rubber ducky...because...well, you know...he's THE ONE!

Today has been the absolute best day. I thought I would be upset by my baby turning 1, but I'm very okay with it. He is such a sweet loving HAPPY baby. I cannot wait to see what kind of a person he grows into. He makes Nick and I feel complete and we couldn't imagine life without him.

Happy First Birthday Teddy Bear!

While the official party is next Sunday, we got started on the presents today! Teddy woke up to a fun play and learn house and a new scooter...one that he can actually ride on! (Video coming soon of him attempting to ride his giraffe scooter...it's too funny!)
