We celebrated Vaan turning one with family and friends. It is a day we will never forget. Of course it was stressful getting ready for the party, but only because we wanted this day to be as special and perfect as Vaan is. Vaan smiled, laughed, ran around with all the kids, and had an amazing day. The weather was perfect, it was warm and sunny and the kids got to enjoy some fun outdoor activities. Vaan enjoyed the sprinkler, being the center of attention, his "peek-a-boo" cards, his "1" crown, and so much more. What he did NOT enjoy was his cake. What's wrong with this kid, he doesn't like cake?!
As a parent, there is nothing better than seeing your child grow and be happy. Looking back at one year ago, it is amazing how much he has grown, how much he has learned, and what he can do at one year. We are so lucky to have such a wonderful, happy little boy. We had big expectations when we found out we were pregnant and Vaan has exceeded them all; his first birthday included. Needless to say, it is a day we will remember and cherish forever. Turning one is so special!
At one, Vaan is cruising around like he has done it all his life. He continues to love books and says more and more words each day. He absolutely loves to be outside. Grandpa and Grandma Stu got him a tricycle for his birthday and while he can't reach the peddles, he loves to be pushed around on it and ring the bell. He also got a basketball hoop from his aunt Erica and Uncle Sean and his Grandma Karen (great minds think alike) and is perfecting his dunk. I think we have a baller in the works! Vaan was blessed with many, many other wonderful gifts that will keep us active and learning for months to come.
Cheers to Milestones, Memories, and One Year Olds
Smash cake!
