Now THAT'S cake!

Happy Birthday to Thomas! We had a beach party for Thomas, and I'll post some pics later, but I couldn't skip the classic 1st birthday event. My parents came down and we had a mini party before they left. Grammy had to put on a "painting" shirt to get him down to the bathtub when we were all done.

I know some people think we're crazy for having our first two close together - 18 months (except for those who have them closer, they all wish they were us), but I can't imagine it any other way. Thomas is a little light in our lives, I didn't know you could be such a people person at such a young age. I don't know quite how to explain it, but he has a magnetic personality. He seems to draw people to him. And, he is drawn to people, we can't go to the beach without meeting several new families (and dogs). What a blessing!
