We had a little party for Porter to celebrate his 1st birthday. All of Terry's family that lives around here came and enjoyed cake and ice cream with us.
Porter didn't know quite what all the fuss was about during the opening of presents. He doesn't have the art of opening them on his own down yet. I wasn't too worried though. There were many cousins there willing and happy to help :)
He loved this ball I got him! I have to admit though, Katelynn is pretty good at getting him to laugh and smile!
We sang happy birthday to him and put the cake in front of him. He would reach out and just barely touch it and pull back. He certainly didn't demolish it like I thought he would.
We gave him this huge peice of cake and thought for sure that he would just go crazy and eat it, all the while making a huge mess. On the contrary, he didn't even know what to do with it. He just looked at it and lightly touched it. He would have probably ate the whole think if we cut it up into nice little bite size squares.
We then went outside and had a bubble blowing party. Porter loved it. Ilana, Terry's sister, gave him a bubble blowing machine. That was perfect because of course he couldn't blow the bubbles, but loved watching them and trying to touch them.
I bought bubbles for everyone so they all joined in on the fun.

How fun! Happy Birthday Porter!!! Next year we'll have to celebrate together. :-)
Happy BIRthday to cute little Porter!! He is getting so big! Can't see you guys!
Oops, can't wait to see you guys;)
What a cute idea to get a bubble machine for a little guy who can't blow yet but loves to see the bubbles.
Glad Porter had such a fun first birthday! Sorry we couldn't make it... Sunday night is our night to eat with Ed's parents. I'm sad that we missed it.
He's SO cute Bethany! It is SO amazing how time flies, huh?
How exciting, the year flew by. Blake did the same thing with his cake!
