Happy 1st Birthday!

My once so so tiny baby J...

(newborn clothes swallowed him! He was in preemie size for weeks)

Is now 1!

His birthday was yesterday

...but we celebrated today so that his two "mothers" could be present (me and the tia who dotes on him and thinks he's hers...you should see their eyes light up when they "talk" to each other!)

Tia Sarin's kids helped her make this poster yesterday - isn't that sweet?
They wanted to come to the party but had school.

The other kids were sooo excited. "New" kids S & A's enthusiasm was contagious! They'll enjoy life here with all of the birthdays. {grin}

Twins E & E thought they wanted the birthday hats but within 10 seconds they were chewed up, torn, and on the ground

raspberry blackberry filling (Mom, I'm STILL using up all the frozen blackberries you left me, that are from, uh....1 or 2 years ago?!)

L. C. digging in!

D. making funny faces

Happy Birthday, our baby!

(And may you be assigned an adoptive family SOON.)
