Alex turned one May 15th. I don't think I blogged about it. We had a casual family party at our house. Sadly my mom has had a rough go of things for the past 6 months and wasn't able to attend. Josh, Bethany, Kate, Evan, Adam's parents and nonnie Doreen all came for some outside play, dinner, and cupcakes. We had a great night.
Alex was not quite walking when he turned 1. I think within a few weeks from his party he started his zombie walk. We spent hours outside our house on the street playing everyday. We play catch, hockey, baseball, kickball, soccer, basketball, and ride bikes. It seemed very normal that we would start our evening all outside.
Of course Aunt Kate went right to Alex. She has an incredible bond with each of my children but there is something very special about the way she loves Alex. Perhaps she feels a certain closeness since they are both third kids...
So close to walking.....
Charlie was in heaven. He is sporting his soccer shorts with his wet suit rash guard and ready for some street soccer.
Naturally Kate was thrilled to have her grandma and great grandma to snuggle and read fancy nancy with.
We got Alex a water table for his birthday. Three kids and six years and this is my first water table. I love it. All three kids (and neighborhood kids) play with this all the time. Mud, leaves, water you name it....
I made a seitan pot pie from scratch, a yummy kale salad and vegan cupcakes that were delish!
Alex enjoyed a chocolate cupcake in the loving arms of his daddy.
