While my mom was in town, we celebrated Ira's First Birthday early. It was really fun to have my mom here to do that with us! We invited some of our good friends over. Ira loved having new toys to play with (and so did everyone else, haha). Ira was apprehensive about his cake, but ate some when I cut a couple little slices. Naturally, we sang Happy Birthday to E as well. It's his favorite song and he sings it all the time. I have lots of feelings about Ira turning 1 year old. This past year has flown by and moved at a snails pace. His babyhood is fading. Ira is a darling child and I adore him!
