It was Ben’s first birthday a few days ago on the 16th April 2008.
We had some idealistic expectation that on his birthday Ben would be his best and most cheerful self.
Sadly it was not to be, due mainly to the dredded “teeth”. Man the whole teething thing is nasty.
On the positive side we had a bit of a party on the following Saturday and Ben was fantastic all day even without his normal sleep routine. We were very proud. It was also great to see so many friends and family come along to celebrate with us. I think it is as much a celebration for us (the parents) for making it this far without damaging Benjamin too much. Hopefully we have done an OK job.
Here are a few pics of the party.
