return of the blog + aston's 1st birthday

yeah buddy, i'm back in action.  i'm sure my return to blogging is as sensational as the prospect of allen iverson returning to the nba...but the good news is that i'm back and hopefully my brain space won't get too jumbled with non-bloggable things in the next few weeks so i'll have plenty of room to keep the posts flowing!

nearly a month ago, sheesh, such a slacker, we went to celebrate our friends' little guy turning one.  Seems like just yesterday we were stuffing him in a basket for pictures (flashbacks available here & here!):

Aston's still super tiny, I think he just really wants to stay a baby forever! :)  But he has grown some killer hair in the past year...really shiny, auburn and curly!  Too cute!!

I think it took him a while to warm up to the whole birthday party idea, but once that giant cupcake cake was plopped in front of him he didn't seem to have another care in the world...even the party hat was ignored!

All in all, it was a great party with delicious food and lots of chocolate!!

See ya back here soon...there's more in store...
