Isaac's 1st birthday party!

Okay, so I am FINALLY getting on here to post Isaac's birthday party that we had last weekend, November 9, at our house. We've had a lot going on since then, most of which started with a bad case of a stomach bug that was looming around at the party. On Monday, Nov 11, we were taking Isaac to his 1 year check up and while sitting in the exam room waiting for the doctor, I suddenly felt flush, nauseous, dizzy, and needed to use the restroom badly! I broke out in a sweat and ran to the restroom to splash water on my face. Thank goodness Marty had gone with me and stayed in the room with the kids. From there, it went downhill. That night, I had a fever (don't know how high of a temp as I could only find the rectal thermometers...and I am not going there!!!), was up all night in the bathroom and the next day, I was dizzy as all could be! Marty was able to come home from work to help me with the kids, thankfully, and I went to bed early and slept in until 12:00 on Wednesday! When I woke up Wednesday, I felt much better. It was a 48 hour bug! And, after talking to several other party-goers, I found out about 1/3 of the people who came had the stomach bug too! The good thing is that none of the kids got sick, just the adults! So weird!

Isaac had a GREAT time at his party though! He loved all the food and being carried around by many. He really dove into his cupcake, which was so cute! He went in with both fists shoving it in his mouth as fast as he could! Precious! I remember Madeline at her first party, and we had to feed her a bite, and that's all she wanted. Marty rubbed icing on her face, just to make the pictures look better! But not my boy.....nope....he LOVED every bit of that cupcake! :) I decided to make the cupcakes this year myself, instead of ordering a cake from somewhere. I decorated them as baseballs, basketballs, and attempted at soccer balls. After failing at 3 of them, I decided to write "#1" on those instead! All in all, it was a great party for a first one! Hope to have many, many, many more for my little dude!
