Jordans 1st Birthday

We didnt really go crazy for Jordans birthday this year because of the fact we were smack dab in the middle of packing for our move up to alaska to be with tyson and for the reason that he is only 1. But we had a lot of fun celebrating it. I decided I wanted to decorate Jordans birthday cake and I wont lie I was stressing about that decision the night before when the thoughts were running in my head of maybe im not too good at this anymore. I havent done this since I was like 13 or something. But its nice to pick up something that I loved to do so much and hopefully continue. It was hard to pick out the pan at the craft store but I opted for the monkey since thats what I call him sometimes and its just fun. I didnt really want to make it a huge theme birthday so last minute at target I grabbed a table runner that had monkeys on it. Done and done. He didnt really dig in the cake like we thought he might. I think he was unsure if he could or what he was supposed to do. But then we cut him out a slice and he DUG in. It got messy quick but it was funny watching him. We had a hot dogs and hamburgers for lunch and then he went down for a nap. Tyson and I sat out in the sun for a bit and I finished Jordans cake. Then when Jordan woke up from his nap we did the cake and present bit. My sister Kathleen and her husband were down so it was a small celebration but it was nice to actually be able to celebrate a holiday or birthday on the ACTUAL DAY and be together as a whole family (tyson and I)
