Today is Turner's birthday!

To mark the momentous occasion, we invited a few friends over Sunday. We wanted to have the party at our house, so we kept it small, and it was a nice way to celebrate.

We put out our new bounce house, which was a blast! We also set up picnic tables and lots of nice food. Best of all, we had two kinds of cake! We had cookie cake and a banana cake Mom made especially for Turner. He never had cake before and he absolutely loved it!

Toward the end of the party, Turner started crawling around like crazy. He climbed up on a stair-height ledge in our toy room, then tried to climb to the top of a bean bag that has his name printed on it. He also pulled himself up, standing on his legs while hanging on to something for the first time. It was all pretty exciting, and we're all waiting for him to just wake up one day and start walking around now!

Today Mom and I made another banana cake and we all went to the park in the afternoon. We ate the cake after dinner while opening presents, then after our bath, fought over all the fun presents! While we were playing upstairs, he tried pulling himself up on his feet again. He almost made it!

Happy birthday to our little guy!
