Wow! What a wonderful gift! Our baby Mateo has turned one year old! We can't believe how fast this year has gone by...  We had a wonderful day celebrating Mateo's first birthday.. although, I'm sure he won't remember : )

  Daddy, mommy and the birthday boy spent the day together, beginning with a trip to the AHA! Childrens Museum in Lancaster, Ohio. Mateo had lots of fun playing with the different discovery stations and walking around the building - yes, I said walking! We then made the one hour trip back home for cake and gifts. Mateo loved his first birthday cake (as you can tell from the pic) and enjoyed the paper and boxes that the gifts were wrapped in! Why is it they always like the box and not the gift?... (note to self for xmas). We had lots of fun, took lots of pictures, ate lots of cake and then it was time for bed.

  This has been a wonderful year with our little gift from God and are looking forward to the next year, and the next... forever.
