Oliver Thomas is 1 Year Old!

*Note: The pictures below are a jumbled mess.  Blogger changed their format, and it is now a serious headache to move things around.  Sorry they are in no semblance of an order!

Oliver Thomas turned 1 year old this past week! We had a lot of things planned for him throughout the week to celebrate. On his actual birthday, we had a special breakfast for dinner of pancakes, sausage and scrambled eggs.  He loved it!  After dinner, we walked down the Monon to Huddles for frozen yogurt.  He was definitely digging it!

A few days after his birthday, we celebrated with family and friends at our house.  We threw a Very Hungry Caterpillar-themed party.  Everything turned out so cute!  I think everyone had a great time, and Oliver loved all the new toys and books he received.  It was also the first time he had really ever had any type of sweet.  He dug into his cake and went to town!  The red frosting on his face looked like clown makeup.  It was too funny!

I really can't believe a whole year has gone by already!  It has flown by so quickly...it's hard to even remember him as a little baby!  Happy birthday, Oliver!

Monthly Stats:
Weight: 23 lbs. 2 oz.

In honor of his birthday, we gave him a fork to start using at dinnertime.  He loved it!

For a special birthday dinner, we had pancakes, sausage and scrambled eggs.  He ate like he was never going to see food again!

Tooling around the living room...he's so close to walking on his own!

He definitely didn't want to go to bed after his party!  He was having too much fun playing with all his new toys.

I think he liked it!

My Mama is going to LOVE cleaning this up!

Happy 1st Birthday, Oliver!

Lots of good friends stopped by to celebrate with us...

Our little family of 3

Each of his monthly pics...

He did not want to cooperate for his 12 month pic!

Hoosier got to enjoy Oliver's birthday too!

Mmmm...he loves Huddles!

Such a big boy, eating with a plate and fork!

Happy Birthday, Oliver!  Your Mama, Daddy and Hoosier love you!

Happy Easter!

This year wasn't technically Oliver's first Easter since it fell so late last year, but I definitely consider it his first. He was only 5 days old last Easter! Now that he's a bit older, we were able to head north to South Bend to see our families. This little monkey slept for most of the drive.



We got to visit with Uncle Deron and Aunt Jodi for awhile before the actual festivities began. We also got to meet baby Jameson for the first time! These two were a riot together. Oliver wasn't sure what to do with him and vice versa!

Oliver got to experience his first Kaczorowski Easter at Corpus Christi. I think he enjoyed watching all the bigger kids play in the gym. I'm sure he'll be joining them next year!

Our little family of 3, getting ready for Oliver's first Easter egg hunt...

Once he found one egg, he was quite content! He just wanted to sit down and shake it...ha!

Still just has the one egg...

Checking out all his goodies with Uncle Deron...

Baby Jameson, looking handsome in his Easter best...

Thankfully, we took Oliver's walker so he could tool around...

Hanging out with his Godmother, Amy...

Thank you, Pinterest, for giving me such a creative cake idea! Ignore the Christmas platter that it's on...lol!

Later in the day, we went to my brother's house to celebrate with my side of the family. We had more delicious food and Oliver got a really cute Easter basket full of goodies from Aunt Fay. Gigi also brought us an Easter basket from South Bend Chocolate, my favorite...yum! We had a really nice Easter with both sides of our family. Hope you all did too!
