Cooper's party hat and cupcakes for his school party...

Daddy, Mommy, and Anna Lauren waking up the "birthday boy"...lots of birthday excitement in the room and a crib full of balloons!

Opening his presents from Anna Lauren...he was most interested in the paper!

Anna Lauren showing off the two "birthday" shirts she picked out to give him for his birthday...

Birthday breakfast at the Donut Palace...

Anna Lauren had to blow out his candle...he hasn't figured that one out yet...

Yes, that would be a whole donut hole in his mouth...he LOVED them!

The sweet girl that worked at Donut Palace was all into our party...she helped make the morning great fun and even offered to take a family picture.

Party time at school...he had already had his "real" snack so he was messy before we even started with his cupcakes.

He was confident that he was the "special" boy today!

Singing happy birthday and getting his 2nd candle of the day...

He dove right in...not hesitant for even a second...

Uh oh...maybe this isn't fun anymore!

Can we say MESSY?

Cooper with all his buddies...he either really likes the bye bye buggy...or...he again, is confident he is the "special" boy!

So happy...he really enjoyed himself at his party!

Cooper and all his teachers...these ladies are fabulous...they LOVE these kids and take such good care of them each day. We are so blessed!

Anna Lauren showing off Cooper's present from Daddy and Mommy...yes, practical, I know...I just cannot help it and especially when he doesn't really need anything.

And after birthday dinner on the patio at Newk's, bath time (loves it) and to bed...it was a big day full of fun for the little man!

And now we have one sweet little man who is "officially" 1, and a tired Daddy, Mommy, and Sister...we celebrated hard and enjoyed every minute with the little man!
