Happy First Birthday, Dominic!

Dominic got to celebrate a week early because we were with family at the coast and normally there are no extended family members present at their birthdays. That's his uncle Chris, my brother, in the far background.

This past weekend we did presents - I'd intended to do another cake but we all got laid out with an illness for most of last week, so it didn't happen.  Photos below are all captioned.

I was trying to get a picture of his shirt, but got hugged instead!

Excitement!

Dominic really likes driving cars and trucks along.  He even makes growly vroom noises.

He's rubbish at the actual unwrapping, just like Ed was at this age.

Eddie received a toy tractor from Great-Uncle Fred, which she likes very much.

Finally got a shot of this t-shirt - which is size 4T!

Happy birthday, Dominic! Congratulations to everyone for getting through the first year.  Onward and upward!
