Austin's Birthday Party!!!!

Austin just turned 1 on October 8th. We had his birthday party the Sunday before so all of his aunts, uncles and cousins from Montana could be there. Austin had a wonderful time!!! At first he didn't quite get the present thing but each time a new toy came out he would get a huge grin on his face. Then he would start playing with the toy and would be mad at mommy when she made him come over to open another one. After the first two he started to realize that there were a bunch of toys in those bags and was a little more interested in unwrapping them. When his cousins sang happy birthday to them he waved. It was quite cute.
On his actual birthday, I took him to the toy store to pick out a present from Chris and I . It was the funniest thing I have ever seen. He started walking as fast as he could go up and down the isles. Then when he found something he liked he would stop, point, look up and me and say, "oooh". Chasing Austin around the toy store was the best exercise mommy got the whole week! His biggest "oohs" happened to be for a big plastic 4x4 truck that had a trailer attached to it that was carrying a 4 wheeler. And the best part about that was that it was on clearence for $8!!!! So we took the truck home. When Chris came home from work Austin was so excited to show it to him. He has been playing with it ever since. He loves to load the back of the truck with his blocks and push it around the living room. I can't belive my boy is 1! He is growing up so fast!
