Happy First Birthday, Bennett!






Bubba's first birthday came and went as fast as his first whole year flew by. We are so thankful to have him in our lives and we cannot wait to see how he interacts with his new baby brother or sister in September (oh, by the way, we are pregnant again and due September 13th if you didn't know...whoops!!) Our due date is bitter sweet as it is 3 days before Grandma Jackie's birthday. She would have been 72 this year. Bubba was her little kindred spirit and she was so overjoyed to know that she had another great-grandchild on the way. In fact, she screamed in my ear over the phone when I told her how close our due date was to her birthday. We miss her every day.

Now that I have made this supposedly celebratory posting a little depressing, here are some pictures from Bubba's first birthday and his first birthday party! On his actual birthday, Mima came over with a birthday donut, balloons and a fittingly loud and obnoxious bear that plays "Happy Birthday to You." The Husband and I took him to the Children's Museum and we had his party on the 16th. We also had a get-together with some of our friends who we met in our birthing class before we had Bubba. All three of the kids are 10 days apart so we threw the three of them a birthday party complete with pizza, cake, and the kiddie pool filled up downstairs. They had a blast!
