Marshall's First Birthday

I can hardly believe today is Marshall's first birthday! When he took his first steps on February 4th, I was both happy and sad to be watching the last "first steps" of my babies. This past year has most certainly flown by! Marshall continues to be a content, patient and happy baby. He can give us signs for "all done", "more" and "milk" and is eager to learn more. Getting the rest of the family to use the signs with him is the bigger challenge.

Grandma and Grandpa Seevers and Shawn joined us for the celebration. Gracie made her cake decorating debut here. I'm not sure if the goal was neat handwriting or getting the most amount of frosting on the cake! Marshall's cake was sugar and grain free, made from almond and coconut flour.

Scott and his dad are shown here enjoying an after-dinner game of shuffleboard. So much for my plans to finish the basement this winter!
