Connor is one!

Our Connor had his first birthday last Friday and we had a party on Saturday. Here's a few pictures of the celebration.


The party was Sesame Street themed and these signs were on their slider doors as we were outside for much of it.







Pictures of Connor through the last 12 months.



The birthday boy!





It was very hot, a good day for some water fun.



We had a nice picnic supper.




And then went inside to open presents.  Connor was happy with the tissue paper and wrappings!




Connor's cake looked like a giant cookie that Cookie Monster would have enjoyed.  












He did get into it and made the usual mess!



Happy Birthday sweet Connor!  You are so loved!

Happy first birthday to Connor. The photos are absolutely precious. The Sesame Street theme is so perfect for a first birthday, and it looks like he had a great time, especially with the water fun and that amazing Cookie Monster cake. That photo of him getting messy with the cake is just priceless a classic first birthday moment. It's so true how much more interested they are in the tissue paper and wrappings than the actual gifts.

I've just published a new post on my blog. I would be honored if you would take a look at www.melodyjacob.com.
