Ben's first birthday was two days ago but we were all too sick to celebrate it so we had the party today. Ben devoured his birthday cupcake with the kind of messy gusto we had hoped for with all the rest of the kids. Chocolate cake crumbs where pasted by chocolate frosting to his face, arms, hands, high-chair, hair, everywhere. Funny thing is, some of our other kids haven't outgrown this. Claire, Jason and even Emily had a bit of desert face after eating.
Ben is a happy little boy. He smiles frequently and when tickled or basking in attention from someone (that's not very often in a seven person home) he has an adorable laugh. I look forward to getting to know his personality more as he continues to develop over the coming years.
