preparing for a party

Tomorrow at 2 we are having Gavin’s First Birthday party! The big #1 is happening whether I like it or not.  I have been so busy preparing and I am so tired now that I don’t have nearly enough time to put into words all this little guy means to us!  He is happy, bright, smart, patient, calm and so loveable.  We love his gapped teeth, his orange hair that is starting to curl, his porcelain skin and rosy cheeks with his big baby blues.  They are such a perfect combination for such a perfect little boy.  We love you our Gavin Wavin Bear, Chunky Boy and we hope you enjoy your first birthday party tomorrow!! You have no clue what is happening but you are worth every second of it anyways.  We celebrate you tomorrow and the little miracle that was given to us by God on October 21, 2009.  We loved every moment of your first year and soon a new chapter will unfold with so many more memories and fun.  We will always cherish continuing to see you grow but for now…just do us proud tomorrow with that CAKE!!

Happy Birthday Party Day son, We Love YOU!

Love, Daddy & Mommy     xoxoxo
