Chuc Mung Sinh Nhat/ Happy Birthday!!

Our sweet boy turned ONE today!!! We missed Annslee's 1st birthday by 3 weeks so it was really nice having him home for this one!

We started off the day with Annslee singing to him...I don't have pics but I do have it on video. Then Annslee went to school while we went to see friends. Tyler is only 7 weeks older than Coby and of course since they are so little they don't really play together. There was a lot of parallel play and a little fussing over wanting the same thing.



Jana and I had to take something to the car so we put up the gate and carried it downstairs as quickly as we could. They did NOT appreciate being left behind!



We got home from picking up Annslee and they went up for a nap. Annslee put on her dress from China to be "dressy" for his birthday. After they awoke from their nap we were surprised by a delivery from Catalyst Foundation for Coby. Annslee of course wanted to assist in him opening it! Seriously, don't you love the "I love you sooo much" choke hold she has on him!

The balloons were a huge hit!




He literally played with them for over an hour~ hmmm, I see more balloons around here!



The gift was the beautiful (and yummy smelling) cupcake and this stuffed lion. The dog in the pic is Brownie (Annslee's dog) and she has named the lion Yellowie LOL



When Daddy got home it was time to open gifts! Annslee was so gracious to help out




We got Chinese food (hey, we went to a Vietnamese restaurant on her Family Day) and then it was time for cake! A few months ago Denise let me know that she had some Winn*ie the Po0h 1st birthday supplies that I could have so of course I said yes. Annslee then announced he should have an Elm0 party like she did on her first one. Hmmmm, so I took the cake toppers she had on her cake three years ago and put them on his cake tonight and she was thrilled : )






I have no idea what he is thinking but the face cracks me up


I lit the candle and Annslee reached over quickly and grabbed his hand saying "no no Baby Coby" She was really concerned about him touching the candle and blew it out quickly! She sometimes "reads" us a story out of the bible and it always involves Baby Je*sus touching a candle and his mom and dad are not happy...guess she thought Coby might do the same : )



Now it is Annslee's facial expression cracking me up....he has no idea what to do with this cake but she sure does!




See, you just put your hand right in the middle of the cake Coby~ it is really fun!


Ok, enough of this...try some icing off this fork!

He never really got into the cake but I still think he had a great day! Happy Birthday sweet boy. We are so blessed to have you in our lives and can't wait to celebrate many more with you!!
