1st Year

We are still struggling without internet, so new blog posts have been few and far between. I'm not sure if I will get around to posting about our vacation to California, 4th of July, and other events, but I had to post about Drew's birthday.
July 12, 2010 at 9:54am Drew Draper Orton joined our family.
Weighing in at a little over 5lbs, Drew has managed to gain nearly 20lbs this year.
He is happy, curious, and a very good boy that loves eating and sleeping.
We have been celebrating Drew's birthday since Saturday complete with a party with carnival food and games in the backyard.
Drew loved staying up late, the new foods he tried, and all the attention he received.

We still have the snow cone machine and have been enjoying late night snacks.
Happy Birthday little Drew WE LOVE YOU!

I LOVE the picture of him with the cake. That may be one of the most adorable things I've ever seen.

It looks like Spencer is enjoying no BYU honor code just like Aaron. Bleh. I hate kissing him with a beard.

I'm glad Drew enjoyed his cake.

And you do look amazing.

Miss you.

That comment from Aaron was me. Google lied when it said it would ask me to sign in.
