Birthday Party

Ethan had a great birthday party on Friday night!

We waited until my parents were here to celebrate. My Grandma Frayer wanted to FaceTime with us for a little while during the celebration so we were happy to share the excitement with her too!

Ethan opened a few presents first with his mommy's help. Then we moved on to the cake. Kristen and Mom teamed up to make a great yellow cake with chocolate frosting. At first, Ethan was very unsure about the cake. He stuck his hands in the frosting and was upset that his hands were dirty. Soon he flipped over the cake and Kristen put some of the cake in his mouth so he would try some. Once he tasted it, he really liked it and started grabbing handfuls and sticking it in his mouth! Of course, the cake and frosting ended up everywhere. But that makes for the best pictures!

After cleaning him up, we went back to the pile of presents and he finished opening presents. He got lots of great toys, DVDs, and clothes to last him for the next few years! It was definitely a big success and we had lots of fun helping him celebrate.

Here are a few pictures

The big pile of presents!

We sang happy birthday

He was unsure of what to do with his slice of cake!

I think he's trying to dump frosting onto the ground

Partway through

"Yup, got some frosting on my elbow. Mission accomplished!"

Cake and frosting all over-- including in his ear!

Playing with his new blocks. Looks like he knows how to spell his name already!
