Reed's First Birthday

We never thought this momentous day would come, but our little baby is one! We spent the day just playing and not napping. It looked like it was going to rain so we ended up not going to the pool as planned. For dinner we had his favorite, Bratwurst and Rosti (kind of like hashbrowns) and we bought what we thought was one big rolled up cake with chocolate in the middle, but it ended up being little Twinkie things with chocolate in the middle. As you can tell by the pictures, Reed loved it and ate the whole thing even though he just ate a huge meal. We also tried to do a handprint and well....Reed doesn't sit still very well. He kept moving his thumb so it ended up being one huge lump as a thumb. We'll have to try again when he's a little older. He liked the way it felt though. He opened presents and didn't play with any of his new toys and then we put him to bed and he wouldn't sleep, I'm sure from all the sugar. He stayed up until 10! We finally told him he had to sleep because Mommy and Daddy were going to bed so he was out of luck. He had a great birthday and wished he could have spent it with all of you!
