McKye's 1st Birthday

On Friday, Oct. 2nd we celebrated McKye's 1st birthday. Angie and I both were reminiscing a year ago when we found out that we would be having our child five weeks early and the craziness of everything...even Angie projectile vomiting across the room after she gave birth. Well, a year later and we have a very active cute little boy. I still look at him and marvel at how he is turning into such a little boy. He is not walking yet but he climbs up on everything (I think he takes that from his dad) and wants to explore and figure out how things work. Angie did a phenomenal job of creating a rubber ducky theme party. There was probably about 20 adults and 7 kids, many of them under 2 years old. At first I was wondering why throw a party when McKye won't remember anything. Well, I think it has helped us remember the past year and God's faithfulness through the ups and downs of everything. And it is fun to have a party.

Angie's impressive rubber ducky cake she thought of and made herself.

There is the birthday boy. Interestingly enough, when we all started singing "Happy Birthday" our social little boy got pretty shy and started sinking into his high chair.

Here is McKye with a bunch of his friends as we watch a video I created of his first year. Getting a handle on Mac's iMovie.
