Timothy's First Birthday!

Our "Little Man" is now officially one! We are so proud of our little guy!

The Birthday Boy with Mama and Daddy

He quite a day and one so busy we'll just fast-forward to the evening.


Oma had come to visit, while the rest of the family and Grandma, whose been staying with us while she's on spring break, were out getting the cake and running errands. Ryan and I had been left at home to tend to duties and greet Oma when she arrived. We talked and visited with Oma.


Daddy came home and soon the family returned form their errands. We all ate pizza for dinner and then visited a short while. I decided to take the birthday boy with Natey and Joshy to jump on the trampoline and play while Mama and Daddy prepared his cake. We had great fun. Daddy came outside all too soon and said it was time for cake.


His swing, he loves!


Outside on the trampoline.....


First cake.....

The birthday orchestra played. The Birthday orchestra is made up of three instruments, a violin, harp and harmonica





We sang, presented him his cake, a hush filled the room, I pressed down on the shutter button of my camera and he began!




Here's a short clip of him eating his cake!!!

It has been such a joy to watch him grow! It's amazing to think a whole year has already passed! We are so grateful to the Lord for our little guy! We hope and pray he will grow up to be a godly man!

To Timothy, my dearly beloved son: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord. (KJV)

What a sweet post, Ashley! I enjoyed all the photos (especially the one of you hugging Timothy. :) He must bring a lot of sunshine to your family!

It certainly looks and sounds like his first birthday was a special one!
