Illinois Birthday Parties

Jack's first birthday was just like his birth... unexpected!!! We arrived safe and sound in Illinois on Thursday. We enjoyed spending time with Nana and Papa Selvaggio and Tia Angela. On Saturday we headed to Forsyth, IL to pick up my cousin Andrea and head to Danville, IL for Liz and Brian's wedding. On our way to Forsyth Jack threw up... ALL OVER!!! We should have just turned the car around, but we thought he just was carsick... Well he wasn't!!! Many dirty dipaers and two vomitting epiosodes later we were at my parents house in St.Anne. We attended the wedding but left during the reception and headed home instead of staying overnight in the hotel. Smart move for us! Jack had a great night (had to call 3 nurses to figure out if he needed medical help!) Sunday, we had Jack's first Birthday party at Grammy and Grandpa Gadbois'... The pictures above are Jack's first cake experience. Nick and I got sick on Sunday, pushed through Jack''s party on Monday at my parents house (pictures will be posted as soon as I get some, my camera battery died!) and ended up feeling much better in a couple days. We enjoyed visiting with many family memebers and friends. Nick and I were able to spend a 1/2 day by ourselves in good ol Chi Town. Thank you everyone for making our little boys first birthday parties a blast! looking forward to celebrating more on his real birthday on June 14th in LA!!!!
