Satudrday was the Birthday party and it was a blast. We had our family and a few friends over to celebrate. It couldn't have gone any better. We opened presents and then had cake and ice cream. Eli even got his own cake and he absolutely loved it!!!

Eli did such a great job with his cake. We sang happy birthday to him and then I put his little cake infront of him. At first he was a little stand offish. He touched his cake and then handed me the icing. He did this a few times and then I helped him have a taste and showed him how to get to the cake. Then he devoured the cake. He absolutely loved it. There wasn't anything standing when we stopped him. It was too cute.
This is what the cake looked like in the end!
Time to get cleaned up!
After cake and ice cream Eli played for a little while and then I was able to sneak upstairs with him and I rocked him to sleep. I could tell he was exhausted. He is such a cuddler. Most of our family hung out to watch the Purdue game on TV. That evening Mike was going to the Pacer game with his Dad and my 2 brothers in law were also going to the game. So my sisters decided to stay and hang out. My mom was spending the weekend with me so it was all the girls and the kids. It was so much fun. We went to Monical's for dinner and when we came back we got all the kids in there pajamas and played Mario Kart on the Wii until the guys came home. It was so much fun. It really made for the perfect day!!! I am so blessed to have such a wonderful family!!

So sad I missed out, it looked like he had a ton of fun! I'm feeling way better though, but still a little tired! We need to get together soon!
Thanks for the pictures, they are so cute!!!!! I'm feeling really crappy today so these beautiful pictures are just what i needed!! I'm hoping for a boy, but i kind of feel like i'm having a girl!!
Oh i forgot to tell you i finally did cut my mini schnazer's hair bt it came out so bad i can't show the pictures! I might try and touch it up some then post. All the fighting and fussing he did is almost worth the $45 the groomer charges!
