Thirteen years ago today, ten days earlier than we expected, our little Thanksgiving baby, Andrew Christopher McHorse arrived.
In honor of him entering the teen years, I have found a picture of him celebrating each of his birthdays so far.
We celebrated #1 at home with family and friends. I made a teddy bear cake and stressed out over it so much that I have not attempted a decorative cake since then.
For age 2, it was all about Barney. While staying in Austin with grandparents, he discovered the world of Barney and couldn't get enough. We celebrated at home with friends and family.
When Andrew turned three, we held his party at "Kids in Action." The theme was dinosaurs and he enjoyed playing games, climbing and swinging with friends. That was when we saw hints of the gymnast to be.
Andrew's 4th birthday was right when the movie, "The Polar Express" came out. He took a few friends to the movie theater and had a really cool Polar Express cake.
Spiderman was the theme for age 5 at Incredible Pizza. Friends came to celebrate with pizza and games.
When Andrew turned 6, Ms. Barbara from Wonders of the Woodlands came to our house with her critters. Andrew and his friends got to learn about and touch insects, amphibians, and reptiles.
It was glow in the dark mini-golf for age 7. We shot a few holes and enjoyed cake with friends.
The Mad Scientist came to our house for Andrew's 8th party. The children got to do some amazing experiments.
When Andrew turned 9, we took a few friends to see "Planet 51." It was out of this world!
Andrew had just broken his left arm about a week and a half before he turned 10. He was still in the ace bandage and splint. We took a few friends to see the new movie, "Megamind."
We had moved to our new home when Andrew celebrated turning 11. He took a few friends to Dave & Busters for games and fun followed by an ice cream sandwich cake.
Age 12, Andrew's first year in middle school, was celebrated by taking two friends to the trapeze class. It was high flying fun!
Happy 13th birthday, Andrew!
We can't wait to see what other adventures you have to come!
