One year old!

I can't believe that over a week ago Cole turned one year old! The week of his birthday was a busy week with us caring for Adelle and helping the Young family. The day before Adelle was born we had a little party with my family in Dallas. Of course, Cole had no clue it was his birthday, he hated his birthday cake and had no interest in his presents! I am glad I didn't spend much on his birthday he was more interested in playing with papa and pointing at the fan!

I admit I was a little disappointed that he didn't dive into his cake or rip open his presents. I think many parents have high expectations of how they want their child's first birthday to go. We are actually celebrating his birthday again next week. I know this is crazy but his sister Raelynn couldn't come to Dallas and it is really important to us that she be a part of his birthday. So next Sunday my husband's family is coming over and we will do it all again. This time I have no expectations, just that Cole will act like a one year old and be completely unpredictable! I will post more pictures later. Here are the pictures of him at my parents house hating his cake and not too interested in his new toys.

I took Cole to get his one year picture made and I envisioned a cute picture with a number one or a picture of him eating his birthday cake but once again he would not touch the cake without screaming and the cute birthday pictures did not turn out well. But we did get the most precious picture that day. Cole looked so cute in his Texas Tech jersey and of course Chris was so proud of his little boy!
