Landon's 1st birthday

This is Landon before the party began.  We tried so hard to get him to stand still by the mums, but he's always on the move now that he's walking.



Landon got several trucks for his birthday and loves all of them, especially if they make noise. 




Here is his own personal birthday cake.  It is supposed to be puppy paws on the cake since that was the "theme" for his birthday.  I thought it best to give him his own cake b/c I didn't think anyone would want to eat it after he had his hands all over it!




What a sweet boy.  By the time he finished with cake he was covered.  This is the before shot.




Leanna and Landon... she's helping him open his presents.  I think he caught on pretty quick on what to do with those presents.




Landon sharing his pacifier.  For lunch we had hot dogs,  chips, potato salad and baked beans.  Landon will eat just about anything!

Landon has discovered the fun of toliet paper!  He loves that all of this stuff can magically roll off with just the flick of the wrist.  It doesn't even bother him when all the paper is gone, he keeps rolling the cardboard roll for fun.



We went to the Nashville Zoo a couple of Saturdays ago.  We got up early (thanks Landon) and headed out to get there when they opened at 9am.  It turned out to be a perfect day- it was cool that morning and not crowded at all.  Landon kept pointing at every animal and saying "doggie".  If you don't know that's his favorite word and works for most everything.



Doesn't she look cute?  I thought this turned out good if I do say so myself.  My favorite part at the zoo was walking through the bamboo forest.  I thought it made a great backdrop. 



What a picture.  Landon looks confused, I look tired already and Leanna is using her fake smile. 




I know no one really wants to see pics of animals at the zoo, but I just had to include this one.  The flamigo exihibit had just opened and they were amazing.  We stood there for probably 15 minutes just watching them.  They were beautiful and it was so fun to watch them walk with their backwards knee. 




Landon will hate this picture one day!  What a cutie though.  He loves to vaccum and is way more comfortable doing this chore in only a diaper.  He is walking everywhere and is hard to keep up with somedays.  Next post will be 1st birthday pics!
