Happy Day!


Happy Birthday Cyrus!
Cyrus turned one on March 21st, so we had the family over and had a little party for him. After going a few nights without sleep, we ended up taking Cyrus in to the doctor that day and found out he had an ear infection. It was a little sad he had to be sick on his birthday, but after some medicine and a nap, he was feeling a lot better, so we decided to go ahead with his party. I made him a potato head cake, and we had fruit cookies, cupcakes, and ice cream. He loved all of his toys and clothes, and we were glad most of our family was able to come and spend the evening with us.
You can tell he still wasn't feeling 100%, he has this exact same face in most of his pictures. This was one of my favorite little outfits I was able to find for him.
Travis helped him blow out his candle.
He was pretty excited about his cake. I thought he would devour it, but he wasn't used to being able to eat like that. I guess that's what we get for trying to teach him to eat without making a big mess.

After only a few bites, he was really worried about his sticky hands, and was ready to be cleaned up. :)
We had an awesome week. Travis was able to find a job! Hallelujah! After nearly 3 months of unemployment we were all ready for it. He started his first day yesterday, and really enjoys it. I also was able to take my final test last week after almost 2 years of schooling. I won't find out my score for another week, but hope I did well enough to find a nice job working at home. I'm really looking forward to being a good mom, and keeping busy at home making some extra mula!

Oh that's no fun that he was sick on his b-day. But he sure is a cute kid:) And one year olds are so much fun.
