It's been a whole year since my second son, Vincent, arrived on the scene, and it's been an amazing year! He's incredibly smart, and to call him strong willed would be an egregious understatement. Much like his brother, Carlin, he's destined to do great things, and I love how far our little family has come, and the tracks we are laying down that will take us to a happy and fulfilling future.
His birthday is Wednesday, but his party was yesterday, and man, was it a blast! We had a Onederful Circus at the park with some of our favorite people, on one of the most beautiful days we've had so far this year!
I got some great pictures while we were there, and I'm sure that's why you're here, so without further adieu,

My little conqueror woke up in a great mood!
From the moment we woke up, it was go, go, go, but like nearly everything, he took it in stride, and his big smiles, random babbling, and excited laughter make the running around much more enjoyable. ๐

His brother Carlin had a ton of fun, too, and was excited that Vincent was finally one, and not zero. ๐คฃ

After everyone arrived, and the baby gifts opened, the time had come for
๐ CAKE! ๐
We have @cryptomomma's momma to thank for this awesome big-top cake to fit the circus theme of his party, and she even made a smaller cake on the side especially for the birthday boy!
๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
The best thing about the smaller cake is that it was made to be SMASHED!
Smash Cakes on first birthdays are a big tradition in my family, because it's always hilarious and cute to see a tiny human smear cake and icing all over themselves!

After a long day of fun at the park, the boys were completely tuckered out, and went to bed happy campers!
We had a fantastic day, and today should be great, too! I have to go to work for half the day, but this evening should be eventful. Happy Father's Day to all the #steemdads out there! Thanks for reading! If these pictures made you giggle, show Vincent some love! All the liquid earnings from this post will go directly onto the dinner table to help feed this chunky guy! ๐๐
@daddykirbs made this for me forever ago, but he may still make one for you, too!
HEY DADS! USE THE #steemdads TAG TODAY, AND SHARE SOME LOVE AROUND!
Wow! This is beautiful. Happy father's day to you; @thatsweeneyguy and happy birthday to cute Vincent.
Thanks! He's getting big quick!
Lol, he loved that cake that's for sure!
Definitely! He didn't hesitate one bit. We barely got it on his tray before he dug right in! ๐๐คฃ
Happy Father's Day @thatsweeneyguy!
Thanks a lot! It's been hectic, but still a good day all in all.
