Cake Face.

Uhhhm, I have no idea what could possibly be better than a first birthday. You get to eat cake. Naked. And someone else has to clean you up. Behold:

Birthday boy!

Nakie time for cake.

That's my boy! Dove right in.

"Hey, Mom? This blue stuff? AWESOME!"

Love. Love. Love.

Job well done, kiddo!

We had Alex's party on Sunday at Dave & Buster's, which is basically Chuck E. Cheese's for grown-ups. He's the only mini in the family, so we figure we'll rock it big-kid style until he's old enough to pick something else. Highly recommended. Another bonus: I didn't have to clean my house, bake a cake, decorate or do any of the clean up. Some things are totally worth writing a check for.

Happy birthday, Mister. We love you, mess and all!
