So Devin's first birthday has come and gone, not without some major celebrating though! We got a cake on his actual birthday, then the next day was my cousin Hannah's 16th birthday and they were having a party for her-and got a little cake for Devin and our other cousin Iris who turns 1 later this month. And then we had his big birthday bash this past weekend. It was a lot of fun, and I can't believe it's all over! My baby is not a baby anymore!! :(
So this kid has had 3 golden opportunities to get messy in cake...and he really didn't want to get messy! This child has no problem sitting in mud and eating that like it's the best delicacy ever and just being a hot mess-yet when it comes to something actually good and I want him to get messy, he gets all timid! Go figure :) So here are some-well lots-of pics from his birthday week.
Iris digs right in-no problem! We put a little icing on Devin and gets so mad at us! We had to take it off his nose and let him eat it off our finger before he stopped screaming at us ;)
Yeah, I shoved his hand in his cake...still a no go!
Well, thanks to Mom and his cousins, he got a little messy!
Family photo!
Birthday party at our house
Dan would let Devin walk a few steps and then grab him back. Devin was laughing hysterically and after a few times he would barely walk a step and then stop and wait for Dan to grab him-it was so cute!

I am pretty proud at how well the cakes turned out. I'm so grateful I did them the night before because I would not have had the time in the morning!
Singing Happy Birthday!
Not a fan of the Hat...of course...
Ok Mom, here I go...one finger!
Here Mom-I'll feed you and you get messy! :)
Oh we are reaching our limit!
Washing up :)
Present time!
Paper on his butt-so cute!
Great Grandma made pillows, quilts, and clothes for both boys...so great!
And now we can play with all the new toys!
Devin's little girlfriend Averie
Dan got in the "pool".
And he got out as soon as Micah went to get the hose!
Yay! I had a great party and I loved seeing all my friends and family!! Thanks for such a fun day :)
PS If anyone else has pics-send them! I didn't realize until after that I didn't have many of the family and other people who came...:(
Ok, so I got some pics from my Dad's camera!
Sisters
Adam, Josh, and Dan playing corn hole with Micah and Lauren
Papa, Hilary, and Daryl
Daryl getting Aiden ready to ride his bike while Grandpa takes him out around the neighborhood. We were ready to sing happy birthday when I realized Larry and Aiden were missing-Micah had to get on his bike to find them and tell them to come back!
Sandy boy!
I think this was his first "beach"...
Cleaning off before heading into the boat
And he's out for the count!
They really wanted us to try this new tube out...it's been YEARS since we went tubing...and they were the ones where you lay on and hold on for dear life.
We still needed to hold on for dear life!
We dropped the kids back off to the beach with Sandy before Micah went skiing.
Getting ready...
getting up
And we're skiing!
All done!
And we left him! I forgot to yell to Larry that he was down...I was too busy getting the shot and waving to the boys!
Aiden in the water.
Devin loved the beach! He also really loved going into the water too...it was nice and warm :)
Look at that doupa!
They had so much fun :) Thanks Kiki and Grandpa!
Sandy took a few more photos of us with the kids and cleaning them off in the water...unfortunately I didn't know that they didn't download to the computer, and I went ahead and cleared my card! I was so upset, because she got some cute ones...so this is the only one of all of us. I guess that means we need to make another trip to the beach!
