We live in a Beautiful World: A Nielsen Blog

I can't believe it, but my baby Dallin is 1 year old today. It sure doesn't feel like 12 months since I first saw his sweet little face. I've loved every minute of the last year. He is such a fun and cheerful little fella. He is back to his usual self for the most part, reeking havoc in his wake and I think he had a pretty fun day. Of course, just the give the kid a balloon or a ball and he keeps himself entertained for hours. We had the missionaries over for pizza and cake. They sang a great Happy Birthday song and cheered Dallin on as he first scarfed down his pizza and then attacked his birthday cake. I know many of you would have loved to been here so I'll post the play by play. These images are not for the weak in stomach. Matthew made him a little soccer ball on a field cake with some of the cupcakes I had made. He gets a froggy cake tomorrow when some of the family comes over. He sure has a passion for food. We're hoping he can gain back a little of the weight that he lost when he was so sick.
