August’s First Birthday

April 6, 2018

Our baby boy is ONE! I’m not sure how that happened, but we sure had fun celebrating our sweet August over the weekend.

August’s Birthday

August woke up on his first birthday to the Disney Happy Birthday song and a cribful of balloons!

After playing in the balloons for awhile, August opened his birthday presents: a Brio train starter set to add to over the years, a giraffe coin bank, and s few outfits that Scarlett helped pick out at the store:)

August had an extra special breakfast…birthday cake! That boy dug right in and mama had a blast snapping pictures of the cuteness:)

Next we got ready to go to Urban Fort Play Cafe to keep the fun going! Aunt Jess, Uncle Greg, and Liam were meeting us there, too!

However, when we got to the play cafe, Jessica told us that there was a waiting list for entry so we all ended up going to the Botanical Gardens children’s garden instead since it was nearby. That turned out to be a great decision because what was supposed to be a snowy icky day was actually sunny and 55 degrees—some much needed sunshine!

August’s Birthday Party

On Saturday we drove to our old stomping grounds in IL to Willoughby Farm for August’s birthday party! It was cold but sunny so we got to see some animals and swing a bit before coming back to the barn for some bbq and cake.
