HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY NOLAN!

Nolan celebrated his 1st Birthday on Wednesday! I can't believe he is already 1! I took Nolan to the little Children's Museum in town during the day and then made some of his favorite food for dinner... homemade macaroni, jello with strawberries, and green beans. He had a pretty low-key birthday considering all our family is either in WA or ID but thanks to Sype, we were able to 3-way video chat with both Grandparents so they could sing happy birthday wish us and watch him dig into his cake! (technology is awesome!)

When Nolan was born It seems like he did a WHOLE LOT of this...

And even MORE of this...

Although we love our Nolan like crazy, he was a pretty tough baby!  His first 5-6 months consisted of a lot of screaming, spit up, and aimlessly walking around our apartment parking lot to get the man to fall asleep. 

I was always bumbed because I had so many cute outfits to put on him and then I would have to put a giant stained bib over the top because he would spit up ALL DAY LONG!  

We went through a good 5-8 bibs a day!  

But now he is pretty much cured of the spit up and does WAY MORE of this....

Here are the highlights of his Big Day!

               He wouldn't keep his awesome hat on             We had some technical difficulties with Skype

                so this is one of the best pictures I got!                and Nolan was getting anxious waiting!
