Can you believe it? Bryce is 1 year old! On Feb 7, 2009 at 7:27pm, Bryce came into this world at 8 lbs 14 oz. and 22.5 inches long. He has grown a lot and has always looked older than his actual age. His name means alert and ambitious which I think fits him perfectly. He has great patience and determination to figure things out without getting frustrated. He is dexterous and strong which we can only hope will help him in some sport of choice later on. Overall, he is a sweet, happy baby with a contagious laugh and the most lovable spirit. I don't think Shaun or I could possibly love someone any more than we love Bryce. Happy Birthday Little Dude.
In honor of Bryce's birthday, we had a wondeful Polar Party!! Thanks to our friends and family who made it out to celebrate. The theme carried through to the decorations, cupcakes and even penguin party hats! The penguin cupcakes might not have turned out quite as cute as I hoped, but it was fun putting them together and were a true team effort. Like most first birthday parties, we presented Bryce with a cupcake to eat. Apparently, his dad's sweet tooth is not inherent since the cupcake went flying to the floor minimally 3 times before we gave in and let Bryce have his preferred dessert, a bowl of fruit. Bryce was sufficiently spoiled with lots of gifts and even contributions to his college fund. Thanks again to everyone who helped us celebrate!
If that wasn't eventful enough, the day after Bryce's birthday, he took his first unassisted steps!! Grandma convinced him his ball was worth lunging into her arms for and he finally took those precious first steps. We are sure to have our hands full now! Look for video of this when the walking lasts longer than 1 or 2 quick steps. Until then, enjoy the new pictures and video of Bryce on his new rocking horse.

Happy Birthday, Bryce!!! Sorry we didn't get to celebrate with you. You are sure turning into a handsome young man! Miss you, Trey and Luke
that video is why LD is my favorite-est baby EVER!!!!!
I'm surprised more people haven't commented on the cupcakes, oh well. Stay tuned for a video of Bryce throwing his cupcake on the floor instead of eating it.
Happy Birthday to Bryce and I love the cupcakes! :) Laria started walking for real on her birthday and it is so fun! Good for Bryce wanting to be healthy... Laria decided frosting was her new favorite thing to eat and now gets incredibly excited when she sees cupcakes. :)
