Finally...Landon's 1st Birthday!

Finally here is the entry for Landon's first birthday!

I watch two little girls at their house during the week. The day started off by Paul, Landon and Me going over to the house to watch the girls. We had some breakfast, then Paul took Landon to his one year check up! They were out of one of the shots, so Landon got lucky, and we decided not to give him any of the shots, and to do them once they received what they needed. So it was a happy doctors visit for him.

After Paul and Landon got back to the house, Landon and the little girls decorated and ate cupcakes! He didn't really do much decorating...just eating!

Then the little girls gave them a "Cookie Jar" toy for his birthday gift. I know it doesn't look like it in this picture, but he had a lot of fun playing with it! He was laughing at it for like 5 minutes straight...no joke!

After the kids played for a little bit, we took them to the park, but before we went there, we stopped and got happy meals for the little ones. Our plan was to have a "picnic" at the park. We showed up and it was so windy! After 10 minutes of attempting to hold all of the food bags and drinks down to keep from blowing away, we gave up! So we put the rest of the food in the car and saved it for later. We let the kids play for about 30 minutes. They had lots of fun! You can tell by this picture of Landon how windy it was! Check out his hair!

His favorite thing to do at the park is to swing on the swings!

When we got home from the park, the kids finished their lunches and took a nap! After nap time, we dropped the little girls off at their older sister's softball game. On the way there, Landon started screaming, and of course the girls started doing it too! It got LOUD! They screamed for about 5 minutes! It was a moment where I just had to laugh and take a picture. This picture captures perfectly how loud it was! I love it!

Once we dropped the girls off, we went to my parents house and had dinner. I wanted to make a "kiddie" dish, so I decided to go with Mac & Cheese, but homemade! It was so good and Landon loved it! After dinner he opened his present form my parents! Grandma and Grandpa got him a wagon for his birthday! He started pushing it around the house before it was even assembled! Here's him helping Daddy put it together.

He was so happy when the wagon was put together!

Here's Landon waiting to go for a spin in his new toy!

We went for a family walk (my Mom and her 3 dogs, Paul, Landon and Me), and Landon was in the new wagon, loving every minute of it! During the walk, we tried to put the dogs in there, and it made him even more happy, but the dogs didn't like it, so they jumped out! Poor Landon, he loves the dogs!

When we got home from the walk, Landon received all of his presents from Mommy and Daddy! I wanted to wrap them, but I didn't even bother! He doesn't quite get how to unwrap a gift yet. The first thing we gave him were some books! He loves books! He especially liked this "Where is Baby's Birthday Cake" peek-a-boo book. He gets so happy when he hears the words peek-a-boo...his facial expression is too cute!

Then he got an Activity Cube. Here is Landon playing with his cube! He just loves all of the different things to do on it! He also loves to push it around the house! He is a strong little boy!

Then we gave him a remote control car! This is him playing with his car...Parents (as in Parents magazine) has a line of toys, and this is a remote control car made for little one, 12 months and up! He just loves it! It's so cute to see how excited Landon gets over cars! I love it! He's a cute boy!

He had such a fun little birthday!
