Zander's Birthday Party

My baby boy is almost one. We celebrated his birthday yesterday, March 20, 2010. We had so much fun! We had his birthday party at our church.

These are just some of the decorations. I took his month crib pictures and put them on card stock and displayed them on a wall. We haven't done his 12 month crib picture yet because he won't turn one until Wednesday, so I used his Easter bunny picture for that one. I forgot to do the crib picture when he turned one month old, so we just used a close up picture for that one.

I made Zander's cake. It didn't turn like I wanted it to. If you can't tell, it is a turtle.

Instead of bringing a gift for Zander, we had everyone bring something to donate to the Ronald McDonald house. Here is the table with the donated items for the RMH.

Zander loved opening presents

And he loved all the gifts. He even got his own lap top.

He did not taste or eat any of the cake, but he sure did make a mess!

He likes to share with his mommy!

And his cousin, Jaylyn
