Last 1st Birthday Party for 2009

Well He just turned one but we like to do things big! We went up North and had Brandt's Last 1st birthday party at Chuck E CHeese! It was AWSOME! Everyone had a great time! Here are some pictures!

1st Tat

We went to Albuquerque to watch my brother play baseball. He wanted a tattoo for his 18th birthday and my mom said no a million times...well she gave in. Ever since i had brandt i wanted to get a tattoo for him, i was dead set on getting his foot print, the one they take when he is born. But that was going to require tons of shading and i didn't think i could handle it..because i wanted it on my foot and that is prolly the worst place to get a tattoo becuase there is no FAT it is basically all bone...so i was going to get chinese symbols that said "Brandt", but i thought about it and what if my next baby i have i can't find thier name in chinese...so the artist drew this up for me..i loved it. Simple and cute and is for my baby boy. PLUS it was going to be at the most 10 minutes. It ended up being about 4 minutes for the tattoo artist to do the whole thing! Thank the Lord becuase it felt like a sharpe hunting knife scraping your foot bone! I was bitting on brandts binky and holding onto Blake! But anything for my bubba boy!

LOOK MOM AND DAD I AM 1 !!!

No I can't believe that my baby is already a Year old! And yes i get sad every time i think about it! But it has to be that way....darn it! He is growing soooo fast! Blake and I are in Awe every time he does something new! But we all went to dinner the day of his birthday at Old Tymer, came home and he had his first cake! He loved it! later that week on saturday we had a party for him at my mom's house, all of his cousins and friends that could come did. My cousin made his to WONDERFUL cakes! She also made Blake and I's wedding cakes. He loved em! He wanted to grab elmo soooo bad! Here are a few pictures, but there will be more as Brandt has one more Birthday party in Layton with Blakes side of the family! Yay CHUCKIE CHEESE!

Anyway here are Brandt's cakes...the little one was just for him to dig into and the Big one was for the guest..but the little one was so big it fed everyone! lol The Elmo on top of the cake was all CHOCOLATE!!!!
