Ayden turned 1 on July 2nd! Our little boy is growing up. Ayden and I were down in the states on his birthday, so we had a belated party for him mid-month with some of his close friends. It was a fun time; it seems like only yesterday we celebrated Addison's 1st b-day with the same group!

While Ayden & I were at my parent's house in Colorado, he took his first steps to Uncle Ryan ~ a few days before his birthday. We kept it a secret from JD and Addie so we could come home and surprise them. He was so proud to show off his new skillz! However, for the time being it seems as though Ayden prefers to crawl in turbo mode. Oh well, he's definitely a few steps closer to being able to keep up with his sister!

Ayden has a soft spot for his Ugly Dolls so for his party I did an Ugly Doll mini-theme. He sleeps with Ox and Big Toe and enjoys chewing on their limbs. Ironically the ugly suckers are quite cute!
