The Birthday Celebrations Begin

As many of you know, we are very fortunate to live in a fantastic neighborhood filled with lots of young families. Last year after Eric was born, a group of about 10 new moms started meeting up while we were on maternity leave to talk about baby stuff...you know, feeding, poop, sleeping (or lack of), etc, etc. Really, everything no one else wanted to hear any more about (including our husbands). In the process, we became good friends and we try to get our kids together for playdates as much as we can.

In celebration of their 1 year birthdays, we met up at one of our parks this afternoon for a little picnic and some playtime. We had a blast and it was so great to see all of the little ones. It has been so fun to watch them all grow from babies into toddlers. Wow! What a year!

This is a picture of all of them at Halloween and at their 1 year birthday party. Can you believe how much they have all grown!?
