Parker's birthday isn't until the 23rd but we had an early celebration with the Larsen side of the family since most of them will be out of town for his actual birthday. We ordered pizza and had salad and got my favorite sparkling lemonade from Fresh and Easy. We had fun laughing at his silly faces and seeing his excitement for the party!
I made Liz's famous apple spice cake with cinnamon cream cheese frosting... it was delicious!
Parker's cousins and Mimi were excited to celebrate!
He didn't quite understand what was going on when we sang him Happy Birthday (four times to be exact because his grandpa wanted it on camera and it didn't come out the first three times! ha ha:) He sang along and flapped his arms the whole time because that kid LOVES music, and with the help of his cousins, Kambri and Jase, the candle was blown out three times! What a lucky kid!
We let him eat his very first cupcake. He was unsure of what to do at first...
"You mean I get to eat this all by myself with my hands???"
"Dat's awesome!"
Mmmmm
Grumpy face (totally fake of course)
Silly face!
Oh boy that was good!
I can't believe my baby is going to be ONE next week! He is growing so fast and his personality is so much fun! I have so many more fun and exciting things to share but for now... have a wonderful weekend!
