Tank turns one!

Our little one turned a year old today! He wasn't feeling well, though. AND, if you look at the picture of his reaction to tasting cake, it's clear he's thinking, "I thought they said STEAK, not CAKE!"


Mommy took him outside to wash him off, then stuck him in the "big" pool with his cousins, which he LOVED. He is a true water baby.

The "big" surprise for his gift was a hermit crab from his Aunt and Uncle and their two sons. Mommy chose crabs and lobsters for his birthday theme, so his Aunt decided to get him a real one! Mommy, when she was pulling it out, almost freaked out because she thought it was a tarantula (she's deathly afraid of spiders). They decided to name him "Crab Cake."

The house was really stuffed -- family, some friends -- even his grandpa from NY came down for the celebration. And, to top it all off, he's starting to walk! Took several steps -- even for my camera!

He'll be the baby of the family for a few more months. Let's enjoy it.
