Our little guy turned one this month! I can't believe a year has gone by since we brought him home! It really hasn't seem like that long ago but I hear time flies when you have kids. It's totally true. Time does fly when you have kids because of how busy you become with your schedule and it seems like there's a million things you have to get done in a day that you never have time for or that you never end up getting to. It's just crazy busy. Well, it has been a really fast and crazy year for us but we are so lucky and blessed to have an adorable little boy in our family. He is everything to us even though sometimes he can be a handful.

Here are some pictures from his birthday party! I wish I took more pictures from the party but I was super busy with everything else. That's what happens when you host a party....you don't have time to take pictures. Anyway, his birthday party went really well and we had a great time! There was plenty of food for everyone there and of course lots of cake for dessert. We also set up a bounce house and a cotton candy machine for the kiddies. The kids loved it! Thanks everyone for all your help and for coming to the party! We love you so much!!

Happy 1st Birthday, Max!! Hugs and Kisses!!

Vegas Weekend

We spent the past weekend in Vegas because of John's Baker to Vegas run. It was just fun to spend some time away from our little guy even if it was just for a couple of days. We were already missing him and thinking about him our first night there though. This was the longest time I've been away from Max so I was just constantly worrying about him even though I knew he was okay. Even though I worried about him, I did manage to have some fun in Vegas.
