It turned out to be a fun birthday indeed for little Miles. He spent the day being loved to pieces as usual. We got him some balloons, one of his favorite things.
(Yes, P* family, he still points at everything.)

His admirers from across the street stopped by, and brought presents!
Tabbouleh for dinner (I have overcome my fear of bulgur. Yes, I had a "fear" of bulgur. It sounds yucky, but guess what.
It's super yummy. Click above for recipe.)
And cake cake cake!
We finished off the evening with an extended tubby, some good fun up on the top bunk, and some late-night playtime with Daddy.(He just wouldn't go to sleep! All the excitement, I suppose.)
Oh, and in case you are wondering about Miles' fashion choices for his birthday celebration (men in my house don't normally don muscle shirts), it is perfectly OKAY for a little boy to wear tank tops. Especially when that little boy has absolutely delicious upper arms.
*Title taken from a favorite line in Shakespeare. Although it has nothing to do with actual physical size or youth, I still love applying it to little people like Miles.

Happy Birthday, Miles!!! He is so cute. I love the messy cake pictures. They are my fave. And Happy 1st B-day to you, too!
So fun! I can't believe we will be doing that soon too!
he really is the world's happiest little baby. although, i guess now that he's one, he's not really a baby. i love his upper arms.
So cute...and you know now that he is one he can stay up til all hours of the night...not like those little baby's that need all sorts of sleep or something like that
Yay! Happy birthday. I am loving your recent posts. I even checked out your husband's blog, but did not comment. Sorry. I don't think we have ever met so I didn't want to freak him out.
I love hearing about your birth story from last year. I am about to do it again in a month and I am just as nervous as I was the first time (well, maybe a little less).
cute cake!
Muscle Tee's are perfectly acceptable on small boys. I didn't realize this until I had my own boys, but I just can't resist those chubby arms, either!
Happy Birthday. Miles!
such a cutie! love all the pictures! what a fun age... enjoy!
happy birthday miles! so cute! i cant believe you gave him his own complete cake! you are a good mom! i go as far as giving them their own cupcake (i am not willing to put extra effort into anything more???)
hey emily, it's just a jumbo cupcake that i frosted all the way down. :)
and you may not give your kids their own cake, but you do manage to take them to disneyworld at the last minute. i think you make up for it. :)
what fun! i love the cake shots!
