Mister Monster Man Turns One

I can't believe it, but Beckett is a whole year old.  He is such a part of our lives I can't remember what it was like without him.  
 Here is a picture of his birthday cake. It's Cookie Monster, for my little monster.  I always make the worst cakes, so don't feel bad if you couldn't figure out what it was.  Most of the time no one else can either.
 I made a small one so that Beckett could have his very own.
 My parents were the only ones able to make it.  We celebrated on a weekday and it was too hard for everyone else with work and school.
 We went to Sizzler to eat, and came home for cake and presents.  It was hard to keep the other kids from blowing out his candle.
 He didn't know what to think about most of it.
 When we put him down in front of his presents, he just sat like this.
 I finally had to help him with them before the other three opened them for him.
 Pretty soon he got the hang of it.
 He only got one present from us, but he seemed okay with that.
 He took his car pretty seriously and tested it out before he would get on it.
Once he did it was the prefect fit, and he is soooo cute on it.
 This is him throwing a fit when we took him away from his toys to eat cake.
 But he decided he liked the cake, but not getting messy.
 Truman ended up having to feed him pieces of cake. 
Little man I love you something terrible.  I can't believe you are already a year old.  Time never stops. You were my hardest birth, and we had a pretty stressful year with you.  But, I am so grateful you were given to us. I hope you will always be my good little monster!

I totally recognized the cookie monster!

He does look awfully cute on that little car.

In several of those pictures I thought he looked an awful lot like your dad.

I knew EXACTLY what that cake was! You underestimate your cake communicativeness...

And your little baby has grown a LOT since I saw him last. He is not a baby anymore - but still a cutie patootie.
