Party Time

Just one more post on Spencer's birthday...

We had a small party for Spencer (Grandma Great, Grandma and Grandpa Tornquist and Walsh, Aunt Sara, Aunt Hayley, Laura and Trace). We talked about having a big first birthday party for him since we never did follow through on having a Welcome the Baby Party when he was born, but neither of us was really sold on the idea of a big party because Spencer is so sketchy on strangers. I envisioned a big group of family and friends over and me holed up in the bedroom with Spencer because he couldn't handle all the people staring at him...didn't sound like much fun. Good thing we didn't because even with just the people that he already knows over, he spent the first hour clinging to me and not wanting to socialize. Thankfully, he finally warmed up and ventured out. 


 We had a yummy BBQ meal before we opened presents...




And then cake (which Spencer really didn't care for...)




and then a few more presents...



It was a nice and calm party and we all had a great time celebrating the fastest year I've ever experienced :) How on earth can our baby be a year old and taking independent steps?! How is he already only a few pounds lighter than Adaline?! Crazy, I tell you, crazy.
