Peter's First Birthday Party!

The weekend before Peter's first birthday, Brett and I hosted friends and family for a small party to celebrate his first year milestone.

As Peter's birthday fell during the summer Olympics we used that as a theme, decorating with multi cultural flags, the Olympic colors, and serving Chinese food.

The hardest part of the day was getting Peter's birthday hat on, and once we finally did he took it off after only monents. His friend Morgan made many attempts at getting him to put it back on, but Peter wasn't into it at all!


After everyone had stuffed their faces with Chinese food, and watched a little Olympics it was time to sing "Happy Birthday!" Peter, being the ham that he is LOVED having all eyes on him, and did a number on his cupcake!


Two cupcakes later Peter needed a bath, but was soon back to his party to open his many generous gifts, including tons of new clothes (Brett was actually jealous of all the hoodies and a redskins shirt), and a few new toys (the theme seemed to be trucks and music makers).

It was a very fun afternoon, but totally wore Peter out. By the end of the party I found him laying on his back under the dining room table with the most tired look on his face. That night he slept for almost 14 hours!
