Happy 1st Birthday X-Man


It is unbelievable that Xander is already a year old! Our baby boy is literally growing up way too fast.  He is such a blessing! I love being his Mommy & I know Kevin loves being his Daddy.  This post covers a couple of days. We had his party on Feb. 20th & his actual birthday is on Feb. 22nd. We just had too much fun celebrating X-Man! We decided to finish the year out in the same fashion we started it, Dr. Seuss.



 Xander got his Eebee from Poppy & CC the morning of his party. Xander loves sitting and watching Eebee and his friends play. Now he has his very own Eebee to play with him.


Great find CC!


Watching Eebee with Eebee & Mommy.


CC flew from Alabama to help us celebrate in fashion and baked and decorated some yummy cakes.



CC created the perfect Cat's Hat smash cake don't you think?  Did I mention they were delicious?
I told Mom I was grateful see was willing to make these beautiful cakes because I wouldn't have even attempted to. She worked so hard on them. I also told her I would encourage Xander to like Ice Cream cakes so she wouldn't have to work so hard in the future! Thanks Mom! They were wonderful!


Some party decorations.


Green Eggs & Ham




We had a huge plate of Chick-Fil-A nuggets. AKA "Sneetch Treats". Chick-Fil-A is Xander's favorite place to eat right now.












X-Man playing with some of his friends. We had about 30 people come to the house to help us party! Thanks guys!


I made some silly photo props!




Xander didn't like us singing Happy Birthday or clapping, it scared him. He didn't want anything to do with his beautiful cake with that huge crowd watching his every move.




 The Busy Board I made him, with some help from Daddy & his muscles!


Kissing his reflection in the mirror.












Xander got some very cool presents from his buddies. Thanks!













One tired little dude!

Poppy & CC got him an awesome truck. Kevin & Mom put it together the night before and Xander woke up to find it in the living room. Needless to say he was very, very excited. He played so hard....ALL DAY.

Xander got some Awesome crocs and books from Grandma & Grandpa Riggan! He loves The Pout Pout Fish! He makes me read it a couple of times a day and it's a pretty long book for a 1 year old. I just wanted to thank everyone who helped make our little guys Birthday so special. We are incredibly blessed!
