Cooper's first birthday fell on Labor Day, and we had a family party at our house. Can't believe you are already one, big boy!Meghan helped decorate the cake and the sprinkles! Willing to take samples during the process. Saliva all over everything... but such a good helper.
Found a good place for the kids to hide out - watching Meghan's favorite super-prise! The distraction didn't last very long though.
Pop and Memma came down for the week to help celebrate. It had been since May when they had last seen this big boy!
Nanny and Pa, Sam, Jared, Aubrey, Alexis, Nathan, Pam, Uncle Barry, and Aunt Gaye rounded out the bunch.
The boys hung out on the back porch to cook hamburgers - and hide! Lots of hiders today :) 
Daddy helped Cooper "open" his presents. Of course, the other kids were much more excited. The seemingly most favorite present - the cheapest little plastic ball! Any balls are much appreciate. Then again, you have to be willing to move past the Tupperware and household items to appreciate real kid toys.
Sprinkles - you have to have chocolate cake to smear all over baby faces.
Cooper was very willing to try to grab the cake... see the sequence...
and the grab...
And the frustration begins! Note the baby holding the matches.
Meghan was very willing to start a rousing round of Happy Birthday - in sharp contrast to the fear on her eyes when she was sung to last year. Lots of little helpers.
Mmmm...
High five!
Bye bye, Memma!
Looking at Bubba's new book. Very busy Meghan. Very very messy Bubba headed for a bathtub.
