Andrew turned one on September 13. We flew to California to spend some time with our family and celebrate Andrew's birthday. On his actual birthday we were in Fremont with Ryan's family and had a great time.
We made cupcakes instead of a cake. You can see Andrew's cupcake in the back by itself. It had less frosting on it :) We had a jungle theme and it was really fun.
Andrew didn't know what to do with the cupcake...
So I fed it to him...
Then he got the hang of it and crumpled it all up and mashed up the crumbs. Once he realized it was good, he smooshed it into his mouth.
He was being really silly and kept tilting his head back and forth.
FIRST TRIP TO THE BEACH
We went to Santa Cruz so Andrew could play in the water and in the sand. It was the perfect day for the beach!
We don't know if he liked playing in the sand, or if he was trying to get rid of it. He kept picking it up and moving it away from him.
These are photos from our trip to Fremont.
We put Andrew to work...
Andrew would push this little wagon up and down the hallway. He loved it and it helped him with his walking skills...
Ryan's parents had this little car that you push around. Andrew liked it and he looked darn cute in it. This is my new favorite photo of us.
We brought our Baby Signing Time with us and as soon as we put it in, Andrew would crawl to the TV, pull himself up and start jumping.
Back At Home...
A few photos from before our trip. Andrew likes to help me organize our pantry...
Andrew got a bike from Ryan's mom for his birthday before we left for California and Andrew was helping me put it together...
FIRST HAIR CUT
Before...
After...
It's sad, but his face makes me laugh...
I heard him whining in the other room and found he had gotten stuck...
His own chariot. (Modern version of course)
He seems so old in this photo.
Hope you enjoyed all those photos!!! Happy Birthday Andrew!!! More coming soon!
