Jake checking out his first birthday gift -- a wonderful toolbench & stool from Nana, Sensei, Great-Gran Peacie, Uncle Rob & Auntie Kristen.


Jake had a party with all his friends on Saturday, January 19th. Here he is playing with his first party guests, Mollie & Colm, and then with the crowd.


The theme of the party was books. Here is Jake sharing books with his friends, Colleen & Joseph.




More playing with friends.


Here is Jake opening one of his gifts, and Mama reading the book he got.


It was sort of a casual party, but we did stop a couple of times to sing "happy birthday" to Jake.


Mama Kris made chocolate & vanilla mini-cupcakes for the babies. Jake obviously prefers the chocolate.


Here are some other babies, Colm & Flannery, enjoying the cupcakes.


Reading books and playing after the party's over.
