Birthday Fun

I know it has taken a while, but I am finally able to post an update for Gabe. It has been a very busy couple of weeks, with his birthday and the Cory Apple Festival. He has had so much fun and done so many new things these past two weekends. It is unbelievable to me how much he can grow in such a short time.
Anyway, for his birthday during the day Matt and I had to work, which was sad, but he got to have lunch with his Aunt B, Aunt Kayla, and Gwen. He also went shopping. After Matt and I got home we took Gabe to pick out a toy at Toys 'R Us. He found what we call his first IPOD. Then we went to dinner at Pizza Hut with Gabe's grammy, grampy, aunts, and his cousin Gwen. After we had eaten we went to downtown Terre Haute to the Street Fair. Gabe loved looking at all of the old cars and listening to the live band play. It was a wonderful day.
Then on Saturday, we had Gabe's birthday party. I do have a few pictures of Gabe's 1st birthday party.

This is Gabe's birthday cake. The theme of his party was John Deere. One of the cakes was a field with a tractor driving in the field. The other is a decorated tractor cake.


These are a couple of pictures of Gabe with his presents. He was not really in to opening them, but he has enjoyed playing with them.


These two pictures are of Gabe enjoying his "smash" cake. It was a small chocolate cake make just for him. Once he figured out what it was he became quite messy. He had fun all the same.
