Dylan's 1st Birthday Party

We had Dylan's 1st Birthday Party on Sept 20th. (I'm a little behind on my posts) It was a cupcake theme with blue and green colors. He was a little bit sick, and had a fever, but he still pushed through and put on his party face.

3 cute kiddies

Chris' Mom's Mom. Great Grandma Guylene Alves. And a tired Dylan resting on Daddy.

I made Dylan's cupcake-shaped cake. It didn't turn out quit like I pictured it, but it tasted good.

Dylan's mini cake to destroy. Which he wasn't sure about at first......

But then he realized how tasty it was and went for it.

He liked opening all his gifts too





Thanks to everyone for coming and enjoying the big day with us. Both grandparents made the trip down too which made it extra special.

Happy 1st Birthday, Dylan Robert

Here's Dylan just 1 year ago. It's so amazing how much they grow in the first year.

Picture on his first birthday, Saturday Sept. 12 2009 with his birthday crown, which he likes to take OFF.

If you leave the bathroom door open for a second, he crawls in and immediately starts unrolling the toilet paper.

He wants up the stairs SO BAD. This baby gate is the only thing stopping him and he knows it.

The birthday boy in his birthday suit. He loves the water, so bathtime is one of his favorites.

Look at that farmers tan

His loves to ride on this car the neighbors gave him.

I took this video on his first birthday. He is such a cutie.

We are having his party this coming weekend because Chris had to work on his birthday weekend. I'm excited to see what he thinks about it all. More to come.....but we're all caught up for now.

Soccer TIme Again

Sophia is playing soccer again. She had her first game on Sept 12....Dylan's first birthday. She looks like she's got a good team this year. Her coach is Amanda and the asst. coach is Matt. Amanda really pushes the girls to do their best.


Her team name is the Galaxy Girls. They had this cool sign made.

Dylan and Sophia for her first game.

Getting some great coaching advice from Coach Amanda.

Looks like that coaching worked. She almost made a goal, but it was blocked at the last minute.

They played a great game. They ended up with a tie of 2 - 2.


Here's what the birthday boy did for about 1/2 the game.

Way to go Sissy! Well, maybe he's dreaming about saying that.
