March 10, 2007, Chase's one year Birthday. Chase, Ryan, and I started the day at Dunkin Donuts. (Ryan and I also had dunkin donuts on his first Birthday.) What a hoot. Chase sat in my lap and loved the munchins. They were the perfect size for him to cram into his little mouth. Ryan said over and over "momma, I love these donuts." It was a real treat for all of us. Ms. Elaine and Ms. Carolyn sang Happy Birthday to Chase all day at school and treated him to bananas for snack (his fav). We ordered his favorite meal for dinner, pizza, and I had made a cake. His favorite toy is a wooden clown, sent to him by Jane Anne. So, I tried to build a cake that looked like the clown and put the clown on top. I think he liked it. His reaction to the cake was just as I suspected. He dug into it with his hands and chowed down for a few minutes. Blue icing everywhere. Eventually he grew frustrated and shook his hands trying to get the icing off, and blue icing really went everywhere. For his first Birthday, Chase got a Birthday Thomas of his very own, a Thomas book, and some bath toys. He was thrilled with his very own Thomas. Ryan learned a very important lesson about how only the Birthday boy get presents...ha. Here are a few photos.
Make special note of the picture with lovey in his mouth. Lately, lovey goes everywhere with Chase and is usually carried in his mouth as seen here, so as not to slow him down or prevent him from getting into things he ought not to.

Wish we could have been there, things have sure been crazy here with more ER visits and Amy sick and working with a new company. For retirees, life surely is crazy.
