It took place about 6 weeks ago. I can’t believe how much he’s changed in that short amount of time.

Seriously, look at him go!

We’re officially doomed.

Zachary had a blast, and I’m so glad we got up early and took a few shots before it all melted. Beautiful.

As I type this I *still* can’t believe my little sweet pea is 1 year old. Time flies by way too fast. Here are some photos from today’s festivities. IMG_5942 IMG_5944 IMG_5958 IMG_5955 IMG_5953 IMG_5952 IMG_5949 IMG_5948 IMG_5947 The Birthday Boy!

But we couldn’t resist posting a few. We are parents after all (we gotta brag!) We’re all very excited to see the fam in Baton Rouge in a few weeks. Get ready y’all… this is what’s on the way!

Zach had just started mastering sitting up on his own in these shots

This was the biggest smile we could get out of him at the moment.

Lately Zach has really been enjoying eating "real" food. Last night we ordered a pizza and I didn't think he was going to ever stop eating.

Zach loves being naked (big surprise). When you go to put on his clothes he's all good until you get to the sleeves. Then the whining begins.

We've been taking him to Paradise (a little over an hour) to do some test runs for the Baton Rouge drive in December. So far, he's done great. We got him a larger baby seat Matt calls his "captain's chair" - and I'm sure he loves sitting in it.

I wished I was able to get these in time for Halloween... but our photographer was a little slower than normal. Still glad I got these though!!

I wish he could stay this age forever (ok maybe not FOREVER but you know what I mean). He's just at such a sweet age right now.

However, after three years of hosting, we are getting quite adept at both preparation and the “aftermath”. Everyone from my side of the family was in attendance, including all of Zachary’s cousins and aunt that he met for the first time. Loved having two screaming young ones around the house, but overall things went great. Check out some of our pictures!

He made several new friends — including Huck, Rock-O, and a certain snowman.

Thanks, Moo-maw and Poo-paw for the great new dancing partner!
