Little K is ONE today!

Kaeden's Bday CakeHappy Birthday to my darling little boy. He’s such an amazing little guy, so we had to throw him one amazing little party.
We had some families over for lasagne, then had pretty much the whole building and some others from outside at our house for cake and presents (there were over 30 people!). There was a rule that no presents under $1 Million NT/US was allowed, but apparently people don’t follow instructions well! :)
Kaeden was such a trooper through it all, and was both shocked and awed by the events. His stomach was probably even more shocked as we fed him his first real people food – a large helping of lasagne!
We played one game in which several objects were laid out in a circle around him, and whichever one he chose would be his future career. We had a stethoscope (doctor), gavel (lawyer), ruler (teacher), thick history book (scholar), basketball (athlete), steering wheel (racecar driver), tractor (farmer), and a drum (musician). We think he was going for the ball before the noise overwhelmed him and he ran crying from the circle. OR maybe he’s just really smart and didn’t want us to put his future in a box. :)
After the birthday song was sung and the candles on his ultra-gigantic (over 1 foot in diameter) basketball cake were blown out, he had his first ever cupcake – covered in sugary icing. He enjoyed it, as you can see by the photos. Then he opened his presents – including a giant raft with over 100 balls!!My favourite shot of Kaeden's First Bday
We think he had a terrific day and are glad he seemed to enjoy it. We’re blessed by all those who came to celebrate this milestone in Little K’s life!!!
Happy Birthday, sweet one.
