You did it! Ok, we did it! We got you to the 1 year mark alive! I didn't have much doubt in my mind, but by the scream you let out at the hotel room over the weekend when you hit your head, one would've questioned "did we screw up big time?!". So for your birthday, me, you, and your dad went to Blue Harbor Resort in Sheboygan that has an indoor water park. What better fun than to take you to a water park to play in a big pool - you love the water. Except since you still haven't grasped the switcheroo from crawling to walking, they don't let little critters like you do too much except be held by your parents in the water. But we rented the humungo room with lots of room for you to push your stroller around, and get really frustrated when it doesn't go your way. The giant bed was all kinds of fun to play on till you, me, your dad missed that little gap in between the bed and foot board, and your hand went down the crack, and you bumped the side of your head. So much for a non-crying all kinds of non-stop fun birthday - atleast you are still too young to scream at me "Why did you take me to the polka capital for my birthday? I hate you guys".
For your birthday party, I made a bunch of cup cakes, and let you eat an entire one. Lets just say, you will never be allowed to eat sugar again. You got plenty of presents, of course you liked the boxes the best. You had a lot of people show up to support you (us too). I sang you happy birthday, held the cupcake in front of you with a lit candle - mostly a bad idea, but no fires ensued - and even though no one could tell, I fought back some tears as I sang to you - and no, its not because I can't totally carry a tune - I can't believe you are one already.
I love you baby.-your mama

We really wish it would've worked out for us to come and celebrate FIN's birthday with you. I hope we can get the little guys together soon so they can finally meet each other! Take good care and Happy Belated Birthday to FIN!
