1st Birthday

Maddox's First Birthday!! I can't believe it's been a year. We celebrated with family and friends at our house and had a great time. Maddox opened all kinds of presents-just when I thought I wouldn't be able to find room for more after Christmas-and destroyed his very own chocolate cake. It was a wonderful time full of fun and chaos and lots of love. Maddox loves playing with this ball in our hallway. We close all the doors and he bounces it off the doors and walls and sometimes his own head. He especially likes playing this game with his dad. Little does Maddox know he will surpass his dad in basketball skills in about 2 years.

Maddox still hasn't figured out how to turn the handle until the monkey pops out, but he has figured out how to get his mommy to do it over and over and over......

Mental note.....save the carpet and put down a tarp next time.
