Happy Birthday Vince!

Last night, right before falling asleep, Mike reminded me what we were doing at this time last year. I kindly smacked him on the head and let him know I'd rather remember the immediate time AFTER his birth.... not the 48hours prior.

Either way, we can't believe our little boy is 1 year today! Where has the time gone? It doesn't seem like we should have a 1 year old on our hands that's for sure. This morning Mike and I snuck into Vince's room and woke him up by singing happy birthday... we do have it on video but I'll spare you our morning singing voices. Vince seemed pretty amused however.

Here he is this morning, coming into the living room to find a new dump truck to play with!

We'll have more birthday pictures later, it's going to be a busy couple of days. We'll pick up my mother today as she is coming from California, Mike's parents will be coming on Friday, and we'll have Vince's birthday party on Saturday.

For now, I can put up a few pictures of our trip to NY this weekend to visit Nonna and Pop Pop. Vince got his first taste of a grown up size piece of watermelon and devoured it! He loves watermelon so much that we've decided to make him a birthday cake in the shape of a watermelon, complete with pink food coloring and raisins for the seeds... (pic to come later)

Where can I get more of this stuff!!
