On April 17th we celebrated the 1 year anniversary of Caleb joining our family. It was an amazing week of filled with birthday fun. For Caleb's birthday, daddy took the day off of work and we set off with Grama to Silver Creek Falls State Park, which is about 1 1/2 hours from our house. What an amazing park! It is filled with gorgeous water falls surrounded by lush trails beneath canopies of trees. It was a beautiful day with bright blue skies - a welcome break from the months of rain. We hiked all afternoon, even getting to walk behind a few waterfalls!
On our way home we stopped for a birthday dinner at Red Robin where all the waiters announced to the entire restaurant it was Caleb's first birthday before singing to him. Ryan LOVED it, Caleb was intrigued. Then Caleb got to try his first taste of Chocolate in the form of a hot fudge sundae. He wasn't sure at first, but once he got a taste, it was all over! After passing the sundae around the table, we headed home for cupcakes and presents.
On the Saturday after Caleb's birthday, we had a birthday party for Caleb with all of our neighbors and our friends Joey and Brian. It was such a fun afternoon! It was our first chance to really welcome our neighbors into our home since moving in, although we have become quite close to several of them. It was fun to see everyone enjoying themselves in good conversation and coming together to celebrate a baby boy they will watch grow. Unfortunately, Caleb was a bit under the weather. However, that didn't stop him from tearing into round two of birthday cake!

Looking back, it was a very magical birthday for Caleb. On one hand, it is so hard to believe that it has already been a year, but on the other hand, it is hard to believe that it has
only been a year! It feels as though Caleb has always been a part of us, I can hardly remember life without him.
