Birthday Pics

Jack opening a present from his Grandma and Grandpa Taylor.
Duck cake...everytime Jack saw it while I was decorating it he said "quack". (which was why I picked a duck.)
This was the first cake attempt...I think it went better the second try.
Birthday boy!
Having fun on his birthday slide! (all the pictures were blurry)
We took way too many movies of the cake...this was the most entertaining.

Happy Birthday Jack!

It doesn't seem possible that Jack's already turning one! It's so fun to watch him learn and grow and to see his little personality develop. We sure love this little guy!

Last week we went to Vegas. Lindsey and Tom (my sis and her husband) were going for a conference, so we found a conference for Matt that coincided. My parents weren't about to have both grandsons five hours away and not see them, so they came, too. Of course while we were gone Michigan freakishly warmed up into the 50s and Vegas dropped down into the 40s. We mostly hung out at my grandma's house. Matt had never been to Vegas so we went to some of the attractions--he got to see what a tacky pit the strip is--yeah! We also went to Phantom of the Opera, which was pretty good.

Jack thought having his own seat on the plane was pretty cool.

My Grandma Mare, me and Jack at the Stratosphere. We went on rides while switching off with the boys.
Jack and Liam had a great time--sometimes they even noticed each other.
Aaawww.
