Look Who Turned One!

I have been away for a week to cold and snowy Colorado to attend a very special birthday party! My grandson turned one year old! His Mommy made a very special Hummingbird flavor cake just for him, which was made with his favorite fruits of pineapple and banana.

His first taste of icing....

A little taste of the cake ....

...and finally a full two fisted indulgence of half of the cake! "Yummy, Mommy, this is so good!"

I think "L" loved his birthday cake and having many friends and family there to celebrate his happy day with him!

Happy First Birthday sweet little "L" ... your Nonna and Nonno love you so much!

We flew back to New York yesterday evening -- the week went by so quickly!

Now I'll be busy, as we still have to buy our Christmas tree and I have to start doing some decorating and baking, along with catching up on everyone's blogs. It's good to be busy, so I won't miss my little guy all at once, but I know it will take some time for the part of my heart I left in Colorado to follow me home again, so please be patient with me a little longer until then.

I'm looking forward to seeing all the wonderful Christmas spirit on your blog ...it is such a wonderful time of the year!
