Happy birthday, Spencer!











In our family, it is a tradition to have your photo taken on your first birthday. So Spencer was no exception. Spencer was a natural in front of the camera. There were a few challenging moments (particularly when he was posing on his back), but overall, he was easier to handle than his sisters. Spencer had a lovely birthday party with about 40 people in attendance -- plus a furry red monster from Sesame Street. Yes, that's right, Elmo accepted our invitation! He came to the party, danced, led some games and acted as a magician's assistant. A good time was had by all, just as Spencer is loved by all. (I think it is those blue eyes that make even strangers melt.)
