1st Birthday

James turned one on Nov. 16th. He didn't get a huge party like his older brother. I really didn't think I'd be the kind of Mom that does everything for the first child and then nothing for the rest. So I feel like I need to defend myself with all my excuses. Well, it's 6 days before Thanksgiving and I figured that it's a bit redundant to get the family all together for a celebration twice in one week. We have 4 birthdays in my family in November and it's just easier to celebrate them all together. We DID sing to James on his birthday and he got to have some carrot cake. He just ate the frosting. I took a few pictures to prove we celebrated so that when he is old enough to see that his brother got a party, he won't feel too left out.

Happy Birthday James!
