Birthday Party

Yesterday, lots of family and a few friends came over for a BBQ to celebrate Caydin's birthday. This is my favorite (hahaha) picture of Caydin taken yesterday! Aunt Katie made AN AWESOME birthday cake for Caydin complete with a monkey, elephant, and giraffe. Caydin got close enough to it to realize that it was a cake and started crying. He is simply not a cake boy! HAHA

He wore his super cute monkey shirt with his name on it and pretty much ran around the back porch the entire afternoon. He especially liked taking Landen for a ride on his bike and playing with the lid for the cooler.

We opened his massive amount of presents (with a special thanks to Jaylin for helping unwrap) and Caydin played with them while Grandma, Grandpa, Daddy, Aunt Katie and everyone else put toys together. Caydin needed his 4 o clock nap (afterall, it was 4:28 pm) so he went down and everyone ate birthday cake. Again, we didn't sing to him (since he was sleeping) nor did we give him a piece of cake to smash. He would of hated it anyways! The cake was super yummy though!!!

After some family and friends left, we played with toys and ran around the backyard!

It was a fun afternoon! Caydin had so much fun that he stayed up in his crib to tell all his "crib buddies" about his day and didn't go to sleep until close to 10. He didn't cry or whine though so we let him babble away. He then woke up around 3 and continued his conversation **he must of remembered some important details that he forgot to mention earlier**. He finally finished his convo and went back to sleep =)

He babbled all morning {I honestly don't think he's ever "talked" so much} and continued on at the doctors office this morning.... until the nurse whose job it was to give shots came him. Poor little guy had to get 3 shots, one in both legs and the third in his arm. He wasn't much of a fan of that!! Either was I!!

Be on the look out for more birthday pictures as I have a ton!!

Thanks to everyone who came over and spent some time with us!!!
