Happy Birthday Owen!!

They say it's your birthday....Da Na Na Na Na Na!
Well happy birthday to ya...Da Na Na Na Na Na! 

The day is finally here.  Owen's 1st birthday!!
I can hardly believe that a year ago today we were meeting him for the very first time.
Now he's grown into a cute, sweet and energetic little toddler.

We started out the day by Skyping with Grandma (complete with a party hat).


 
She and Grandpa even lit a #1 birthday candle and sang to him.  :)


Then I made him a very special breakfast of scrambled eggs and pancakes.


It was his first time trying eggs and he wasn't a huge fan, but I'm sure he'll grow to love them.
All that early morning celebrating can wear a little guy out, 
so we took a quick nap break to rest up for the rest of the day's festivities.


Next on our list of fun activities for the day was Birthday lunch with our neighbor Lisa.


The manager even brought Owen his own little bowl of ice cream to celebrate.  


He would take a little bite, make a face because of how cold it was, then continue eating.
He decided the deliciousness was worth the uncomfortable cold.

Then Ryan came home early from work to hang out with us this afternoon.  
We decided to take Owen out for birthday dinner.


He might not realize how special of a day it is yet,
but we still wanted to celebrate how important he is to us.
His night was topped off with another very special birthday dessert.
He was a big fan of the gingerbread cookies. 

 
 
Happy birthday little Owen!!  I hope you had a great day.
You are an amazing little boy and your dad and I love you SO much!!
You fill our days with smiles and laughs and not a day goes by
that I don't thank God for bringing you into our lives.
Your catch everyone's attention with your cute toothy grin and fiery red hair,
and you've captured our hearts from the moment we met you.
We love you lots little buddy!!
Happy Birthday!!
