Matthew's 1st Birthday

So I'm more than a little late on this... sorry!  We celebrated our little guy's first birthday on May 8th with a little get together in the backyard.  Most of his favorite people were there, though we were missing a few crucial folks!  All for good reason though.  All in all it was a fun night, I'm pretty sure Ella had more fun than B because it was mostly her friends who were there.  Always the hostest, she made sure to introduce everyone because not all the kids knew each other.  What a doll!
Sweet Matthew didn't even get to stay up for the whole thing but he did enjoy being carried around and fussed over while he was awake!

This is Neala, hopefully Matthew's future girlfriend.  Cutest ever!!
We had to pull out the roller coaster for the kiddoes to play on.  It was a hit!!  And we were so happy that the Best family could come up from Charlotte and celebrate with us.
Just a sip before the cake?
Matthew's personal, dairy-free, cake.  For some reason he and Ella have serious issues with things on their hands.  Just like Mommy!
Baity, Riley, and Ella tearing into the favor buckets.  Loving the bubbles!
Yay for presents!  This is one of B's faves, thanks Uncle Nate!

Happy Birthday, Big Guy!  We love you and can't wait to watch you grow into a young man.
