He is an extremely happy and low key boy when he is not sick or has an ear infection (which have been common lately).
Unfortunately, he woke up with an ear infection and fever the day of his birthday party. We had to cancel the party knowing he would be so unhappy and so not to infect all of his little friends. I think his sisters were the most disappointed.
We did try and have our own celebration with a little cake and balloons. Poor guy had a runny nose and just wasn't that into it.
We had planned out a little jungle themed party and I had made up a collage of pictures from each month of his first year.
Grandma Kelbert had already made up his jungle cupcakes by the time we decided to cancel his party. They were the cutest cupcakes I had every seen. She did such a great job on them. We did share them at church the next day.
Joshua was so excited about his presents. He did have to compete with each of his sisters on a chance to actually open one though.
He was a trooper with his runny nose and sneezing. He loved his new bear and book from GreatGranny. The girls read the story and the bear, Cooper, talks along with the story line. Very sweet.
Our little one year old has brought so many blessings to our family this last year. We have laughed more, loved more and enjoyed each other more. We love you buddy!

I love this post. Sad that Joshua was sick. Love the pics. :)
Happy Birthday Little Man!!! We sure do love you!
Oh....I love all the little touches you put into his party (glad we at least got to enjoy them via cyberspace!) Those cupcakes might be the most adorable things ever. Your mom is crazy creative! The one year photo banner is a great idea too. I'm going to have to come over to get an up close and personal look at that. Josh in all his 12 months of sweetness! Happy Birthday to one of our most favorite boys in this world! We love you Joshy!
