Jared turns one!

Jared turned one year old on November 24th. I can't believe it's already been a year. My how time flies! We went down to Mesquite for Thanksgiving (which was two days before his birthday) with my mom, stepdad, sisters, and their families (well my younger sister's family and my older sister's boyfriend). It was so fun! My Uncle Danny and Aunt Debbie also showed up, along with 3 of their grandkids. My cousin Kamber and her hubby would have been there but baby #4 came into the world Thanksgiving day. It was great having Jax and the twin cousins, Taylor and Trestan together for the 4 days we were all there. Jax actually got used to being around the twins. He's usually not too sure about other babies at first and will just sit there and watch them for a while. In fact a few days after coming home, we went over to Tamra's and Tyler's house and Jax immediately started playing and roaming around, and following the twins. We were all surprised by this. It's a good thing! The day after Thanksgiving we had a little party with Jared's birth family. And here are pictures.... 


 Jared liked the bubbles! He kept trying to touch them but could never get to them fast enough. His birthmommy, Kylia, is holding him and his Auntie Lacey is blowing the bubbles.



This little Elmo backpack from Kylia is so stinkin' cute!

Tamra and mom with the twins.





He loved all his new toys! Especially Thomas the Train and the musical bus ride thing.



His cute cake that Kylia bought him!



He loved the cake! Thought it was yummy!

Saturday, which was his birthday, we traveled back home (which is like a 7 hour drive) and that evening we had another birthday party with Shalum's family and my dad. He was not a happy guy cause he was so tired from traveling. Truth be told, Shalum and I were exhausted as well.

Opening presents, but he didn't care much to do so. :( Poor little tired guy.

He just wanted to be held by his mom.


His pirate cake. Ahoy mateys!

And his pirate beard. Arrrrrrr.


I love this little boy of mine! Such a cutie!
