One year



The Tiny Dark Lord turned one on Saturday, and we celebrated with much fanfare. Or, you know, as much fanfare as a one-year-old is up for, which isn't a lot.

My cake turned out fine, except don't even ask me about the frosting I tried to make which looked like a bowl of fresh baby vomit and resulted in me running to the store at 10:30pm to grab a can of Western Family vanilla frosting so that (when combined with the boxed cake mix) I could just give the kid a year's worth of preservatives and artificial crap all in one go. Woot! 

Suck it, Martha!
The birthday singing weirded him out a bit and he wasn't sure quite what was going on. Then I dumped this thing on his tray that is much bigger than the stuff I usually give him, so it took a second for him to decide how to approach it. As you can see below, he figured it out.


Chocolate cake, baby. I pretty much blew your world with that one. Now get a load of ice cream

I love this little guy so much. Even though he chose to reject all of my genes in favor of his father's (Eyebrow and love of fine cheese notwithstanding) I just can't get enough of him. I keep thinking of him as the same little baby elephant I brought home from the hospital, but he's changing and learning and growing so fast that I'm always surprised by it. 


Happy Birthday, Tiny Dark Lord.

He is wonderful and adorable. And his eyebrow is especially spectacular.

Happy birthday, sweet little one! I was so happy when you told me you were pregnant with him, and very, VERY happy when he arrived safe and sound (after crashing through his momma's innards, apparently). ;)
