Birthday Bash!

Mommy and daddy threw a little shindig for Gary's first birthday last weekend.  Grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins were in attendance!  Happy birthday, mister!

The cake! Nice work, mommy!

Scoping out the loot!

Bear ears from cousin Henry! These are cool!

Not going to wear the mask though...

Hey, it's Henry!  Nice ears, weirdo!

Oh, wait.  I'm wearing those ears too!

The only way to travel!

Oh, cake and a candle!

I've never had cake.  Will I like it?

First taste!

Hmmm... tastes lemony!

I don't like it when my hands are sticky!

Ice cream too?  I think I'm going to be sick!

Wait, what do you mean my party is almost over?

Don't end, birthday!  I'm having so much fun!

 

Just The Dudes

So, mommy left for Minneapolis to attend a work conference earlier today, so Gary and daddy are holding down the fort for the rest of the week.  This will be the first time that Gary and mommy have been apart for more than a day.  One day down so far, and the house hasn't burned down yet!

Dinner time:

I could eat one Cheerio at a time...

Or I could shove them all in my mouth!

Wait, no pictures! This is man time!

Bath time:

This water feels good...

Wait, no cameras! I'm naked!

Daddy, you are crazy!

Would you like me to bring you the front page, mommy?

I'll just walk it over to you, no big deal.

Gary Walks!

So, Gary has been walking for a couple of weeks now, but video footage has been difficult to come by.  We finally managed to get some steps on film this weekend (though only after resorting to trickery and deception, because we are awful parents).  Observe!
