Ollie the 1-year-old

I can't believe Oliver is 1!!! Where did the time go? I am so grateful that he is strong, healthy and that he's got a nice round head :)

We celebrated Oliver's birthday on Sunday (the day before his actual birthday) so that some family could come over. Uncle Chis, and GiGi & Papa Campbell celebrated Ollie's special day with us. They loved watching Ollie eat make a mess of the cake.

Oliver loved eating cake. Especially the chocolate frosting.

Ollie wasn't interested in opening presents (most likely because he didn't understand what to do), so Big Brother Calvin happily volunteered to show him how.

Oliver loved all of his presents...for about 5 seconds each. Typical 1-year-old. 

 However, Oliver especially loved this toy from Uncle Chris. It makes music with flashing lights, he can unlock doors, and play with little farm animal figures. A 1-year-old's dream. Unfortunately, whenever Calvin tried to play with it Ollie threw a BIG FIT! Geez! I guess it's not a 1-year-old party unless there's some crying, riiight?

Overall, Oliver had a blast. And he loved all the attention :)

The next morning (Oliver's actual birthday), Jake made pancakes with chocolate chips! Ollie devoured them.

For a lot of the day, Oliver was PASSED OUT! I think he was still exhausted from all the partying he did the day before.

Happy Birthday, little one! Thanks for joining our family. We love you!
