Happy Birthday to my Grandson!!

The Birthday Boy with his Mom & Dad

Cousins Lily & Holly with Christie
(their mom) and Nana

I spent two weeks in the Houston Heights parked in my son's driveway again - great accommodations:)  Caden's first birthday was February 19th and this Gram wanted to be there for all the festivities.  Doug and Leigh Anne hosted a birthday bash for him the Saturday before his birthday.  It was also the first time many of their family and friends saw their new house.  A fun day!

Grandma and Papa with their favorite little guy!
(Leigh Anne's Parents)

Sitting in his new chair reading his
truck book.

Leigh Anne had lots of things to do leading up to the big day, so I got lots of one on one time with the little guy.  He is at that stage where he walks half the time but crawling is still faster.  And, he is fast - way fast!  Lots of fun to spend time with him.  I will admit to being exhausted a few times - one day was even a two grandma day:)

Leigh Anne and her cousin, Shelley.
Shelley made Caden's cute cake and
ALL  the  cupcakes.  Great job!!!

The Chance Siblings - Walter, Maynard,
me and Ardell (Barbara was sick
and couldn't be there)

The day after - he didn't want to have anything
to do with his cake the day of the party!  Too many people
watching:)
