First Birthday Preparations

I find it really hard to believe that my sweet little boy will be one in just a week.  This weekend we are having a birthday party with my extended family to celebrate all of the August birthdays.  My grandma turns 85 this year, which is the reason we are having such a big "bash."  Sweet Baby W shares his birthday with his Grandma Great, so it will be a very special celebration for us. 

The theme for this first birthday party is the zoo.  Baby W is a little monkey, so I will test my cake decorating skills once again to make him an adorable monkey cake.  I think I will create a lion smash cake for the little guy, as well as some frozen chocolate covered bananas.  I'm sure it will be great. 

First birthdays are always hard for me.  I can't believe how a year has possibly passed since we met our new addition.  I am glad we get to celebrate with many members of my family that we normally wouldn't see.  What wonderful memories we'll have!
