Carter's Birthday Party!!
>> January 24, 2011
After having to cancel Carter's first 1st birthday party because we all had the stomach flu, we were able to reschedule and had a great party this past weekend. Many of our closest friends and family came and it was such a fun day!
Just a warning...I sort of went crazy with the pictures on this post.
Trying to get a family shot before the party. Carter was very distracted by the balloons across the room! Grandma and Grandpa Longhurst (and the balloons!)
Showing off his robot birthday shirt!One of my best friends, Katy, surprised me with a trip to Bellingham for the party! It meant so much to me that she came to celebrate. I love her!Friends and family.Carter getting his cupcake. The first time he got a cupcake during his 1 year photo shoot, he ate the whole thing. 2 hours later, he started vomiting for 6 hours straight! Needless to say, I think he remembered that horrific experience and wouldn't even try this cupcake! Matt trying to convince him to take a bite. He wasn't convinced.Yep...still not interested.We ended up putting a Cheerio on the frosting to see if he'd go for it. Nope...he just took the Cheerio off and ate it.So, we tried a blueberry. And, he did the same thing!"Mom....can I be done?"We decided to move on and appreciate our son's love for healthy food! It was present time!Carter's friends Aubrey and Ellie joined in the fun.Carter was spoiled with so many fun things! Thank you to everyone who came to celebrate!
