Happy Birthday Oliver!

Our baby boy turned one last Saturday! This year flew by so fast.  He is such a handsome little guy.  He got his first haircut on his birthday and it took away his baby look :( His hair was out of control so we trimmed it for our family pictures. 



He didn't like his birthday hat! It made him look like the pope!


I couldn't get a good picture of the two boys together. Oliver was more interested in the comb and Thad didn't want to look at the camera.


We had lots of family and friends over for his party.  My mom brought Thad back to us on Wednesday and stayed for the party on Saturday.  She brought Hannah, Macie and Dawson with her.  We still had Shayna out here and so she brought her back to Kansas with her.


Mommy and birthday boy


We had a BBQ and a Elmo birthday party.  I found this cute idea on Pinterest and made our own veggie Elmo.  


Daddy and birthday boy!


Oliver, Landon and Parker playing with his new drum set we got him.  They can start their own band together.  It came with 4 instruments and they have fun shaking them all.


Ollie got so many cool toys! He got a bubble machine that plays music for the bath, a ride on bouncy toy, bath toys, trucks, and balls.  He has had so much fun playing with his new toys.  


He loves his new bouncy ride.  It has a ball so when he sits it gives it a little bounce and plays music.  He can get on and off by himself which is nice.


He also got a new swing set! He loves his baby swing! Thad also likes it and thinks he is the one who got it! 




Elmo cake! It turned out really cute. 


I painted this plate at a pottery place in town. 


Ollie was very nice about eating his cake.  He was very excited he got his own piece instead of little bites!


He finally took a big chunk of cake and put it in his mouth.



Yummy!


I love this picture of his big blue eyes.  


When he was opening his presents his friend Parker was very anxious to see what he got.  Parker got in Oliver's way and Ollie yelled at him and pulled him down! Everyone else thought it was funny except Parker! 


This little boy is so special.  He has been such a blessing in our lives.  We thank God for him everyday.  He is such a little sweetheart.  He is still crawling everywhere, walking around furniture and standing a little more on his own.  He loves walking when we hold his hands.  He is going to be an outdoor baby and cries when we bring him back inside.  He loves throwing the rocks outside and crawling in the grass.  


Happy birthday to our baby boy! 


Thad likes it when Uncle Tony throws him high in the air.  I caught this shot at the perfect time! He wanted more and more but Tony was tired!
