Micah's 1st Birthday!

Happy Birthday, Micah!!!

Micah celebrated his 1st birthday on December 31, 2009! (What a cool birth date to have, right?!) He actually began the festivities a week earlier in Mobile with the Grandparents and his Aunt & Uncle. Then, he had another party on the 30th at daycare where the kids devoured a cookie cake, well, everybody but Micah--he just played with the icing. The little boy next to Micah ate not only his own piece, but Micah's piece, too!

The following day, on the 31st, we had another birthday party at our house. Some of Micah's closest friends were in attendance for the celebration. Since there were 8 children ages 3 and under, I tried to make sure that there were activities suited for everyone. There was a pool of balls for the age 1 and under on one corner of a huge mat that was laid out in the kitchen, ---although, the big kids played in it, too. The other 3 corners had either cardboard books, tambourines, or coloring books with crayons. I also had a "Winnie the Pooh" movie playing on the television within view from the mat.

The kids just played for the first hour, followed by snack, gifts, and cake during the next hour. Micah enjoyed his cake this time, probably because it was from Edgar's bakery! Speaking of the cake, Edgar's did a fabulous job with both his birthday cake & smash cake!

By the time the party was over, the pool of balls that once contained 145 balls, was left with only 10. I'm still finding them in random places!

So, within the past week, Micah had 3 birthday parties! What a lucky kid!

Enjoy the pictures!
