We celebrated Collin's birthday yesterday with his friends and family. His birthday is actually this Wednesday but I will be out of town and it was easier to have everyone over on a Saturday instead of during the week. Collin's buddies that were able to make it were:
Addison and her mother, Kristin
Matthew and his parents, Tony and Maria
Melia and her parents, Terry and Shane
Saige and her parents, Todd and Kristen. Her bother Ethan made it also.
I am sure he did not know what was going on. He had to know something was different because we have not had that many people in our house at one time since he was born. He had a great time playing with his friends and flirting with their parents. When it was time for the cake, he was not ready. I think he was confused because his highchair was not in the kitchen like it usually is when it's time to eat. Plus, about 15 people were staring at him smiling. He would just stare back at them. He also did not know what to do with the cupcake and ice cream. He usually has his food on the highchair tray and not on a plate (we are not dumb....we know what happens when a baby picks up a plate and decides they are not interested in it). So, he did sit the for a few minutes before he picked up the spoon and played a little with the ice cream. Eventually, he did eat a little of the cake too. Next, it was time for presents. He would open one and be so interested in it that he would not see that another one was waiting in front of him for him to open. Halfway through opening presents, I think he got bored because he started to crawl away. We eventually opened them all.
Thank you to everyone that was there to celebrate this milestone in Collin's life. We had a great time sharing this time with you. Thanks to Grandma H for all of her help. The food and party would not have been such a success without her.
