Wow, what a long day! With nearly 60 special party guests in attendance; Dylan celebrated his very first birthday today. Everything looked really cute! His party theme was," Prince Dylan's 1st Birthday Bash!" He was royalty for the day! The yard was decorated, the entrance was showcasing a large photograph from Dylan's 1st birthday photo session and the staircase had 18 decorated party favor bags for all the beautiful babies and children. Balloons and streamers colored, baby blue, royal blue, silver and white; filled the rooms for all to enjoy! There was plenty of food and punch as well. The cakes that are shown above in the picture, were from a nearby bakery called Julies (http://www.juliescakes.net/). The large cake fed all the party guest and the small cake with the crown, was Dylan's smash cake and he did smash it! The adults each recieved a scroll personalized with all Dylan's pictures month by month with a birthday poem (the scroll is the first photo listed above) Anyways, everything went really good.
Dylan would like to take this time to thank everyone for all the cool birthday presents and for helping us celebrate his special day!

One year ago today I was admitted into the hospital. I had gotten food poisoning from a sandwich shop nearby my house, to start out with, then, I went into premature labor. I know you are thinking how did food poisoning cause my labor to start? The answer is real simple, throwing up for 10 hours straight kicked started my contractions. My doctor was able to slow my labor down enough to be released after a day or two in the hospital. I think I was 34 weeks pregnant at the time. So I really needed to go another week or so, and I did, Dylan was born on March 28th. Even then I was induced into labor and ended up having an emergency c-section because at the last minute Dylan decide to flip, lol. Oh well, everything turned out great after all!
