1st Birthday Festivities

I am playing a little bit of 'catch-up' here. I do have tonnes of new photos that I really want to share, so bear with me as I try and get organized and catch up.

We celebrated Zechariah's birthday for two days. I think we needed a bit of a break and we were feeling a little sad, lonely and well maybe a tad guilty that he wouldn't have the big 1st birthday that all other kids have or have had.

So the day before his birthday Zechariah got to open his gift from Mommy and Daddy.

Here he is coming around the corner looking at his new toy......

A brand new Elmo chair that laughs and vibrates when he sits in it.



He really loves to sit in his Elmo chair. He giggles and throws his head back everytime Elmo laughs it is so cute to watch. He knows how to sit in it all by himself!


After he got his present, we packed up and headed to our favourite beach on the Gold Coast--Surfer's Paradise. Zech just loves the water and when we arrive he just can't wait to get to the sand and water. He screams as I try and put the sun block on him as he just wants to go.


Love this pose....


He just has to taste everything!!


Playing with Dad....I love this picture of my boys!! :o)


Zech goes nuts when the waves come in.

Surfer's Paradise--it really is paradise! Miles and miles of beach!

Last but not least, Zech loves to chase these critters on the beach. I am a little scared of birds and well hate them, so it is kind of funny that I even took this picture. I thought it was kind of a neat picture though.

Zechariah's first b-day "day 2" will have to follow.......
