Happy 1st Birthday Briggs!!!


Briggs a few weeks old

November 18th was Briggs' first birthday...where did that year go?! Of course we couldn't celebrate just that one day, so we started last weekend with a party for him. My family came over to help us celebrate. We ate some yummy food, opened presents and then did the "cake thing"!

Briggs loved just playing with the ribbons and wrapping paper! Jaygen was going crazy because the presents weren't being opened fast enough. All the other kids were having fun playing with the new toys.



For Briggs' cake I made him is very own huge cupcake. It turned out really fun!



We just let Briggs have his whole cupcake to himself. He started out just very carefully picking the little M&M's off the top, but then he caught on and the fun began. It wasn't as bad as I though it was going to get, but I am pretty sure there is still some frosting in his ear.




All done!!!!!


On Briggs' real birthday we opened more presents and we thought it might be fun to stop at Jumpin Jacks to let the boys play since we were already up north. They all had a blast! Briggs went crazy and looked so cute trying to walk on the blow up things. He loved going down the slides. Todd even took him down the big slides and he loved it!











Briggs had so much fun with the wrapping paper! :)


We had a great few days celebrating! I can't believe how fast time goes by. I love Briggs so much and couldn't have been happier a year ago to get another little boy. My house constantly has balls being thrown around and tackling matches going on and I wouldn't want it any other way. Briggs totally has the "cheesiest" personality and I think it is just adorable. He always looks at people and scrunches his nose up and smiles sooo big. Briggs is starting to push little cars and trucks around and make car noises. He is also starting to toss balls around, that is when he isn't eating them!! He is still a climber. He tries to climb up or in anything that he can! It is so much fun seeing his persoanlity develop! Happy 1st birthday Briggs! We all love you!
