In addition to his girl cousins Lexine, Savannah, Mikayla, Mackenzie and Madilyn, Vin had five of his friends celebrate with him. Isaac, Alexander, Zoey, Madison, and Ella.

Well, it happened. Vin turned one this past Saturday. It was such a wonderful weekend. Jason (my bro), Andrea (sis-in law) and the girls came up from NC to help us celebrate as did my Mom and Dad.

We had his 12 month appointment yesterday and all went well. The shots were a little rough this time but he took it like a champ (a champ that cries and screams). He weighed 21lbs 11oz and was 31 inches tall. He is starting to become quite the little expert crawler which is so much fun.

Andrea took much better pictures of the party since I was busy running around so I will post those when I get them. For now here are some b-day party and weekend shots.

Whoa whoa whoa...
These pictures look suspiciously like some sort of party is going on. Couldn't be...

Happy Birthday, Vin.

Dearest Vin: "Happy b'day to yoo... happy b'day to yoo... may each day of the year, may you find Jesus near... (repeat) and the best year you've ever had! HOORAY!"
[Little song your folks may remember.]

Way to grow, little guy, and truly the Lord is blessing everyone with your life.

Love & hugs,
MommaGum
