Birthday Boy

Rory's least favorite present for his first birthday was a virus that I think he picked up from a slightly questionable play area at our local children's museum.  Next time I am torn between exploration and germ concern, I think I will make the opposite choice.  His week long bought, paired with the bug he had two weeks prior made me forget what he was like as a healthy baby.  Poor guy. We had to cancel his blueberry picking party.  We did serve slightly stale desserts three days later at a small replacement gathering.  I got lots of snuggles, but am still a little sad that our partying did not fully reflect our joy at having a year with this sweet kiddo.
