Birthday jamboree

Kelton just turned one year old! Since a bunch of his little friends also had their first birthdays within a couple of weeks we had a joint Birthday Jamboree for 6 babies at once. All their little friends came, and we had Julie-wulie come lead music for us (her real name is Julie Wong and she taught Music Around the World for Kelton and several of the birthday babies). Lorraine made wonderful banana cup cakes and all the babies played with the balls, ballons and other party favors.

Kelton was happy to find something to push around the room. He seemed to overdose on party fun though...


Mirabel was looking very cute in her red party outfit.


Kaden was enjoying the party until his mom wanted a photo with his party hat on.


Aiden gave Elmo a big hug after he was tossed around in the parachute.


Maya was the perfect hostess. The party was held in the community room at her apartment complex.


Evie had fun with her sister Lori, and enjoyed her party hat more than Kaden did his.


Many of Kelton's older friends also came to the party. Here's Asher, Avielle, Arthur, Elliot and Justin having a good time.


Finally here's the group enjoying some more music. The party was such a success that we're planning on Birthday Jamboree II next year.

The step

At Nana and Papa's house Kelton discovered a step just his size. He had a difficult time intially, but he kept at it and became an expert after a couple of days. Daddy got a great series of shots from his first attempts.
