Matthew turns one



In typical Matthew fashion two things happened immediately. First, he almost burnt his fingertips as he reached for the flame on his birthday candle (ok really my fault - I didn't know that I shouldn't have put a candle infront of a baby!) and instead of eating the cupcake he went straight for the candle. (First picture) By the time we realized what he was doing and I had time to grab the camera and get a picture (of course!) he had already eaten some of the candle and most of the burnt wick.

Matthew ate his entire cupcake and also ate most of his cake the next day. He sat very quietly and ate away...I think his hope was that we would forget about him and he could eat everything he wanted! He had no problem with icing all over him and he gladly wore anything we put on his head, unlike Neva. Again I think he was willing to do whatever it took to eat that cake!
