IT'S MY PARTY...

I can cry if I want to...

cry if I want to...

CRY if I want to!!!

Poor Gage. We had a birthday party for him on Thursday and he was not happy one bit! This really isn't like him, but he had a good excuse. On Tuesday, he got his one year shots. He ended up with the fever they warn you about, but it lasted for about four days. During his party, it was at about 102.5 degrees. Yes, I was terrified and called the doctor and they said he was fine. But then Friday morning it was at 104 degrees!! I was so nervous. Luckily, Derek and I were able to get it to drop and he got better from there. Poor Gage!!

All he wanted to do was snuggle mom... so I ended up covered in more cake then him!

As he opened presents he was pretty happy. Ribbons and wrapping paper, what baby wouldn't be happy!

Gage was totally worn out after his big party. What a tough day!

Thanks so much to EVERYONE who came to Gage's party to celebrate with us! He got spoiled like crazy and he is a lucky boy to have so many people that think the world of him. We love you all!!

Just for the record, Gage is doing lots better and is about back to his normal self. Until next week that is. Gage's surgery will be next Wednesday, so if you would like to keep him and the surgeons in your prayers we would appreciate it so much!

Birthday Boy!!

Gage is ONE year old today!!

Happy Birthday BIG BOY!! We love you so so much!

For some reason, I couldn't figure out how to make the video flip the other way, so just turn your head a little! :) I had to get this recorded because I
am so proud of Gage and I LOVE the sound he makes when he tries hard to do something! It is like the sound his dad makes when he is lifting weights! Usually, he does this by starting out sitting on his bench, but today he just decided the bench was over-rated! You can tell he is so proud of himself, and I think he has every right to be! (Oh, and yes, he does try to eat himself in his mirror, as you can see by all the slobber on it!)
