The Big No. 1




Cam had his first birthday in August. Since Mark was gone for the actual day, we had a party when he got back in the family. We haven't had that many people in our home at one time and we had a blast. Mark's parents and siblings came up from Farmington/Centerville and we loved having everybody!

It was so fun reflecting back a year and thinking about Cameron coming into our lives. It crazy to realize that at one point Cameron wasn't here. It seems like he's always been here laughing and being a nut. I can't believe how much he's grown and what he's learned over the course of the year!


The cake

Cam was an old pro at opening presents by this time.



Blowing out the candle (with help from Cousin Jackson).

Eating a cupcake-not such a fan.
I'm sure Cousin Russell thought it was almost sacrilegious
to waste a cupcake like that.

Someone finally had mercy and thought to give him goldfish.

Love this boy!

  1. Holy WOW. I can't believe he is already 1! Crazy crazy how fast time has gone. He looks so grown up from the last time I saw him too. What a handsome little guy.

  5. Happy birthday! I can't believe he's one already. Seriously. Although furthermore, I can't believe how GORGEOUSLY amazing his eyelashes are. Every time I see a picture of this handsome little guy, I feel a little pang of jealously...because being part Japanese...well, let's just say Japanese are not known for having luscious eyelashes. ;) Anyway, SO cute. Love the pictures. Glad he got his goldfish. :)

  6. P.S. I think he handled the cake thing very well. ;) Micah cried when I tried to make him eat his cake. Who does that? Really. (It was pretty funny though...looking back, anyway.)

  8. Love this little guy! I'm so glad we were able to be there! I wish we had a recording of his laugh from that night. I'm still giggling about it! It's fun to see Cameron's personality really shining through now and see his excitement for all his birthday toys that he got. I've never seen a one-year-old "get" his birthday like he did. What a great kid!
