As promised, I'm going back and catching up on some old projects I've done. Jaxon's first birthday was so much fun to plan! While Grant was in Afghanistan I put lots of energy into things to keep me busy and help those ten long months go by faster. Sorry Mom, I know your house was a mess while I worked on different projects on every room ;)

Very lucky to know so many talented ladies :) Danielle Roberts made our cake, cupcake lady Jenna Roth made Thing 1 and Thing 2 cupcakes, and Cake Pops by Vanessa
These were all loved by Jaxon (as you can see)!

The cupcake stand was about $6 on Amazon and I hot glued ribbon around each tier. I actually used it again for our Mickey Mouse birthday party.
The only thing missing from our Cat in the Hat party was Grant! I cannot imagine hugging and kissing my baby goodbye at 6 months old and not holding him in my arms again until 16 months - my husband is much stronger than I am. I thank him and every service member that sacrifices seeing their babies grow in person. It's not just the birthdays and holidays - it's every day for them. So gives your babies extra kisses before bed tonight, all over the world parents are wishing they could be home to do the same!
