First Birthday Party

Little Dude will be one tomorrow!! We had his birthday party this weekend and it was so much fun! On Friday, we took Little Dude and my "niece" to Gatti Town for a fun night out. It was Little Dude's first time at one of these types of places. He had fun and enjoyed the pizza. I told him to say "Cheese" and this is what he did:

On Saturday, it was time for his party! He woke up from his afternoon nap just in time for the party. When I got him up, I said "Yay yay yay! It's time for your party!" He started clapping!! He hadn't clapped before, so this was very exciting! Here he is clapping while his Poppers holds him and Nana watches.

Little Dude loves balloons. He kept pointing to them and wanted to touch them.

Little Dude got a couple of cards that sang songs. When I opened them, he started dancing in my lap. Here he is enjoying the Tigger song that his Uncle T and Aunt M got him.

Little Dude got so many gifts! Here he is riding in the Cozy Coupe that he got from his Uncle J & Aunt K.

I made a football cake for him to eat (without eggs, of course). He made a big mess and really enjoyed it!

On Sunday, we went to a Rangers game with Nana, Poppers, Uncle T and Aunt M. Since we were there celebrating his birthday, he got a birthday bag and they put his name up on the big screen! He had so much fun with the batting helmet that came in the birthday bag!

And one of the most exciting moments came when I caught a foul ball!!! I was so excited and danced around like an idiot. I was so excited to get a ball for him for his birthday! You can see the excitement!

Tomorrow, we are having cake (again) with family. He has been thoroughly enjoying all of the festivities, presents and attention. He's only a *little* spoiled.
