George's First Birthday

Happy first birthday, George!
As he doesn't have any character/theme preferences yet, we picked out this cute Peppa Pig car cake

George's birthday cards from friends and family



We gave him a slice with George Pig's picture on it



We got this cute Happyland birthday set before he was born--he loves it!







We took loads of pictures of his big cake-eating moment--it was all over very quickly!





Looking around for more



Ruth gave him this lovely Paddington Bear and book set--he immediately took to him and grabbed his wellies and examined his face! Richard and I gave our nephew Charlie a Paddington Bear for his first Christmas, and he poked the eyes and nose right away, just like George did. So cute!

Playing with the farm set from Aunt Kelly, Uncle Jason, William & Charlie

On a sugar high after his cake!
Today we had a little photo-shoot with his new toys and books


The shoes, socks and shorts are all birthday money purchases, too







I love this shot--he looks like he's actually reading The Highway Rat!


The Parum Parum Pum set has been a huge hit (excuse my finger in the shot, but I love how he's raising the drumstick!)





He loves that little orange shaker egg and crawls around with it in one hand


The bee maraca is a hit, too




All that playing and posing wore him out, so we had to call it a day on the photo shoot...


It's been a week now and it still seems crazy that he's a year old! I've got a conference coming up and a work deadline later this month, so I'm not sure when I'll get the Thank You cards written up--but in the meantime, here he is enjoying the lovely gifts! Thanks, everybody!
