Sam 1 year old! A pleasant family affair

in life •  7 years ago 

Today we celebrated Sam's first birthday! A big day, also for a grandmother like me!

I have a very wise daughter and she and her partner invited only a few people and only for two hours, from 12 till 2 pm. The grandparents were there, a few uncles and aunts, nephews and nieces and one good friend with her husband and children.

And of course, there was a big cake!

For once, Sam was allowed to eat cake with cream etc. and he loved it!!

This was the cake before Sam got his little hands on the cake

After he ate the cake, his mother took him on her lap but he was watching the cake and would have loved to eat more.

He got a lot of presents, but he didn't have much interest for the presents. That will change over the years of course, but now the paper was more interesting than the gift itself.

My two granddaughters were also present. They played with one of Sam's new toys, Duplo!

His uncle Mark (@exyle) and his aunt Bianca (@bkdbkd) gave him a tipi. Sam helped to unwrap the present.

So much 'work' makes a man hungry, even a little man!

Sam loves food, he eats everything, on the picture he is eating pumpkin soup, his other grandmother made a pan full of pumpkin soup for the guests.

We had a very pleasant afternoon, tiring, but pleasant!

I hope you had a nice Sunday also.

Congrats, looks like little boy Sam had a great time and that's what counts the most! Also, nice tipi!

Thanks, I think it was a great idea from Mark.

I suddenly feel like eating cake....or smashing some in my sons face. Haha! Happy birthday little stranger!

A good uncle would have given a toy that makes noise. Little boys need to bang on things. LOL

I can assure you, he has a lot of toys to 'bang' on. He likes to make a lot of noise!

Happy Birthday, Sam! Sounds like you had a wonderful party with the right number of people. Too many and it gets out of hand quickly and the birthday person gets tired and cranky. The best part of any birthday is the cake and ice cream. The tipi will give years of enjoyment to Sam. Very thoughtful. Glad you had a nice Sunday.

Yes, too many it too much! Certainly for a 1-year-old!

happy birthday to sam god bless him and also have nice day..):
