Our boys are one year old!!!
I am going to upload all the party pictures onto this post. There are A LOT of photos – so I wont be putting captions on all the pictures. Sorry…. there’s just too many!
We all had a great day. Tracie, Sal and the boys’ grandma worked for hours and hours and hours to make all the food and clean the house and decorate for the party.
We made sure all the party food was low allergy egg, dairy and nut free. We served: marinated chicken drumsticks, meatballs, party pies, french fries, pear tarts, chips, cookies, natural confectionary lollies, bread and dip, fairy bread, marshmallow slice and honeycomb. Thank you to Grandma, Nana and Aunty Shell for your contributions to the food.
The boys did very well. They were a little overwhelmed when the first guests started to arrive, but soon got into the party spirit and had a great time. We had 28people all crammed into our kitchen and living room. The kids played in the ball pit while the adults talked, laughed and ate party treats.
The boys opened their presents, with a little bit of interest and a lot of encouragement. They were interested in the first present and wanted to play with it before opening the next. We had to keep them on track opening the next present, as there was a fair few presents to open. They got some really nice things – thank you everyone!
We ate cake and sung happy birthday in the garden (so it wasn’t as loud and overwhelming). Sal made the boys an egg and dairy free chocolate mud cake. It was shaped like a number 1. It looked and tasted great!
I will write a longer post about the boys’ latest skills and developmental milestones soon. We are having their 12month check-up on Wednesday.
First – the boys wake up and open their presents from their mummies….
And then it’s party time!!!

Happy Birthday My Little Darlings!
