Party for Marcus

I like to have celebrations for the kids and since Marcus will be out of town the day he turns 1-year old, we had a little party for him before his Texas birthday party. On Wednesday, Abraham and Beck made party hats and I made one for Marcus. That evening, I baked cupcakes for the kids and Beck helped me decorate them with "sprinkles" on Thursday. Before lunch time, I got a call from Abraham's mom saying she was keeping him home that day. So, our party of four became a party of three and only two kids can eat the cupcakes. I sent Jeff home with lots of cupcakes that night!

Marcus did not hesitate eating his cupcake...in fact, he ate the whole thing plus the crumbs on the high chair tray! I was cracking up! He grabbed his hat with his hands that were covered in icing so I took it off. Icing was everywhere...in his hair, up his nose and all over his clothes. I had a big mess to clean up but it was totally worth it!
