1st Birthday Party

Aaron celebrated his first birthday with his good friends, nana, Aunt Angie, parents, and grandparents at Gymboree Los Altos today. 16 other babies joined Aaron's party and he had loads of fun (at least that's how I feel).  Auntie Ping and Jeanie were very kind to prepare some homemade blueberry+strawberry/banana muffins for the babies to enjoy.  Aaron loved the banana muffin and the adults enjoyed his awesome owl mango birthday cake. I also ordered some custom owl cookies as party favor and people love them!  I hope Aaron had a wonderful birthday even though he wont be able to remember any of it. Happy Birthday my sweetie!

Party planning progress

Aaron's birthday party is coming up in a week and I finally received all the custom decorations today, which means I have very little time left to assemble everything.  I decided to use owls (they symbolize wisdom) as the party theme and tried to find everything owl. :)

Here are some of the party supplies -

Pulling up

We went to Ally's first birthday in Fremont today and Aaron started to pull himself up after watching other babies do it.  It was so exciting to see him being able to pull himself up as he has been pulling himself up to his knees for the past month or so.

We came home and he kept pulling himself up by the sofa.  Now that he figured out how to pull himself up, he probably will keep doing it and perhaps start making a few steps? All these developments seem to come way too fast and I feel like my baby has turned into a toddler already. Time flies so fast when I am with my baby and I truly need to learn how to cherish every moment that we are together. :)
