Sawyer's 1 Year Photos

The day before Sawyer's First Birthday we had a photo session with Jared with J Designs. It was one of our first times (besides his new born photos) trying an indoor shoot and Sawyer was running around all over his studio. Unfortunately, Sawyer didn't much care for the blue icing on his smash cake but I have to admit the ones of him screaming with it are still super cute! We even got some good outtakes of us trying to get the Superhero mask on him, he also wasn't a fan! You can tell he had just learned to clap because after every pose he would start clapping.

'Sawyer the Destroyer' Birthday Party

Sunday we celebrated Sawyer’s 1^st birthday with a superhero themed party, held at my parents house. We came up with the theme from the nickname we have our wild child, “Sawyer the Destroyer”. We tried to keep it small with family, close friends & classmates. I designed a comic book style invite to introduce our little Super Hero. We had Super Hero masks for all Sawyer’s friends to decorate and we got to watch Sawyer the Destroyer in action as he tore into his first bite of cake. Special thanks to everyone who helped us celebrate and my mom and sister who helped us with all the little details and setup!!
