Super Wyatt

Not sure how it is possible but we now have a ONE YEAR OLD!
This year has gone by so quickly that his birthday snuck up on me. I felt like I planned a lot a long time ago, then kind of stopped, then had to piece it all together at the end. I loved how it came out and we had a SUPER good time celebrating our guy!

We had a superhero theme party it was so fun to see that everyone got into the spirit!

Our super family
{Chris took off the mask immediately because Wyatt was scared!}
 
After Chris took his mask off, his friend brought out a new cowboy hat...creating a new super hero!  
 
 
Auntie Karen came down (YAY!) and was Iron woman
Papa was the Flash and Nana was a monarch

Super Mema and Super Wy!
 
We used these brick boxes  (misc. cardboard boxes painted like bricks} with our roller coaster and everyone had a blast breaking through them! It was the hit of the party!
 
Even the big kids had to try it out!
 
A picture of Wyatt for each month on a banner and a city scene set up behind the gifts.
 
The dessert station!
We had delicious cupcakes, cookies, chocolate dipped pretzels.
 
Wyatt had a personalized cake!
 
I ordered these cookies from the woman who made cookies for Bailey's first birthday! Even though she doesn't normally make cookies anymore, she made an exception and I'm so glad she did!
 
Wyatt wasn't feeling very well, he's been having a really tough time with teething, and he was little overwhelmed with all of the people so he stayed pretty close to Nana, Mema, and me.
 
He is so lucky, having so many loving arms to feel safe in.
 
We kept the food simple:
Large blimpie sandwiches, pasta salad, fuit salad, and potato salad.
It was perfect, relaxed and made a lot less work for me which made me able to enjoy the party more.
 
Besides the "brick" wall and mask making station, we had a face painter come and she was phenomenal!
Cousin Ella the rainbow kitty
Cheetah Mak
 
Wyatt was so blessed with gifts! I don't know where we are going to put all of his new toys but we are all slowly enjoying playing with them together!
Wyatt sat for a bit, then got overwhelmed with everyone watching him, so he was cuddling with Nana while the other kids helped open the gifts.
 
A happy moment! I love these two!
 
Wyatt was not a fan of the cake...
 
Not feeling good, being watched by a lot of people, made for a scary situation for our little superhero. He was quickly scooped up and taken away for some cuddles, and a bit of a nap.
 
Bailey on the other hand...
Bailey had a Blast {and enjoyed some sugar!}
 
All-in-all the party came together wonderfully, we all {other than the birthday boy} had a great time and it really was a super celebration.
