Birthday Party for Amos!

A family photo! Astute observers will note that Eric is FaceTiming with his mom, whose face is on the phone. 
Birthday boy! 

Birthday crown! 

Jessa made this magnificent cake. We had the party at Mellow Mushroom, where we took Amos on opening night when he was just over 48 hours old. They were having their 1-year anniversary celebration, Alice in Wonderland themed, so we piggybacked Amos' party. 

Crawling around the patio. 
We made birthday hats. Look at all the mad hatters! 


There was a caricature artist. We got both boys' portraits done.

This lady was pretty cool. The kids couldn't get over how tall she was. 
Babyville.
Brothers. 
General party chaos. 
More mad hatting.

He made quite a cake mess.

Eli lent a hand. 
He soon turned his wrath on the crown. 
Crown off. 
More cake!

Gimme that camera! 
Amos kept at it for a while. 



Amos opened lots of good presents! Unfortunately Eli has taken over this one. 
Birthdays are exhausting.

Happy 1 year birthday, Amos! (and happy birth-day to you, Jessa!) Is it me, or did we get here all too quickly?!

Amazing cake! Love the details!

Enjoy, family!
