Second, the last of the first year monkey pictures.
And third, Abram's birthday was made complete by me getting to talk to Abram's Tia Leti on the phone for 30 minutes after his party. It was an incredible blessing and the perfect end to Abram's first birthday.
Cheesing it up in front of my monkey tree. 
Monkey cupcakes.
Monkey cups.
All the monkey goodies.
Jaida came to my party!
And so did Reese!
Aunt Kate got me this fun monkey helmet . . . as if I wasn't already a monkey enough!
Everyone started singing Happy Birthday to me. Mom was trying to take a picture of me to send to my family in Texas.
I didn't know what to think about that big monkey cake, so mom gave me a cupcake. I just picked at it for awhile.
Mom thought it was time I get more of it in my mouth.
It didn't take me long to dive into it!
Then I got to open lots of presents. I got a lot of baseball and monkey stuff! Grammy out-did herself again and gave me a rocking chair that matches my room. The rocking chair actually used to me my mom's . . . Grammy said mom got it on her first birthday from her Grandma Hotze. What a great gift!
Rockin' it in my new chair!
Check out my new monkey rain boots!
Grammy is trying to help me with my swing.
Mommy said this is her favorite picture of the weekend. Something about me being a really big gift from God and this being the best year of her and daddy's life so far.
