Joseph turned 1 year old! He’s getting to be such a big boy. He had 2 fun parties to celebrate his first birthday; one in Jackson and one in Baton Rouge. Nina got Joseph a very, very nice new car seat! He had outgrown his first one so Nina made sure his next one was the best! He needed some new clothes and he got some great new duds from Donna, Aunt Becca and Uncle Mark, Aunt Rhonda, Nina, Mama Dez, Judy, and Caroline. He also got some really cool new toys – all of them with wheels, because he’s always on the go these days. He got a super cool big red wagon from Mommy Fleeta, Krissy, and Aunt Beebo, a Pooh-mobile from Papa Will and Cookie, and a neat dump-truck from Aunt Rhonda. Even the book Donna gave him had a wheel that you can turn on it! Caroline also got him some soft cars that go vroom and Judy hooked him up with a big Tonka truck. All in all, he racked up big time on his first birthday!

There are pictures of his birthday week celebration in the gallery.
