The cake was supposed to be made to look like blocks,but I ran out of time and didn't get to add the detailing
He was much more interested in cake this time around
He was trying to get on the 4-wheeler before it was even unwrapped!
On Thursday the 27th, our little man turned a year old corrected age, meaning had he been born on his due date, this is when he would have turned one. It also means that he is developmentally like a 12-month old. We had cake to celebrate this birthday, as well as the anniversary of him being home for a year. He came home from the hospital on August 22nd, 2008 after 10 weeks of being in the NICU. It's hard to believe he's been home for so long, and such a blessing to be celebrating his corrected age birthday!
The party turned out really nice. All of his grandparents came, plus his Auntie Bri, Uncle Jeremy, Crystal, and Gage. Everyone enjoyed watching Eli play as we reminisced about how far he has come. He got all of his current favorite things as gifts: blocks, cars, and balls. Mommy and Daddy got him a small ride-on 4-wheeler, which he just loves!
Mommy got a present on Thursday, too! Seth got me a new camera. My regular digital camera broke when Seth and Eli dropped it a few months ago, so I have been patiently waiting for the day that we could afford a new one. Seth is supposed to be getting a profit-sharing check from work, so I am now the proud owner of a Nikon D40! All of the pictures from the party were taken on it, but I had just received it about 30 minutes before the party started and hadn't had time to practice. It's a DSLR, so it's going to take some playing around before I become a better photographer. I'm already improving though. More to come! :)
