Now that he's a year old, we've switched his car seat to face forward in the car...he LOVES it! His little legs just don't stop kicking!

Jackson has really mellowed out and has resigned himself to his new role as Sebastian's pillow
Daddy D's cousin Vicky's drums are in the studio. She stopped in to give Sebastian a little birthday lesson or two....
The balloons have fallen; all the better to play with them!
Mommy G made gnocchi and Biz Nonna made sauce...Sebastian liked them better than his cakes!
Courtney and Kelly gifted Sebastian with a lovely Baker's hat...Sebastian is not so sure about it...
Three cakes, really?! Carrot cake, buttermilk chocolate cake (Nana's specialty) and Nonna's lemon cake with marshmallowy frosting. Add two flavors of gelato (vanilla, and Mommy G's new favorite--yellow cake with chocolate frosting) and you get sugar overload! Sebastian suffered through a round of happy birthday on the accordian, Auntie Jen shoving his hand into the cake, and then a few little tastes of the cake....what a day!
Luckily we had a nice little alcove all to ourselves...Sebastian spent most of the evening making the rounds, climbing the stairs, and surveying the kitchen chaos, before falling asleep in Mommy G's arms.
This is where it all started a year ago....after a nice big hamburger and fries, and lots and lots of water, I went into labor here at Henry's. Dave had to walk (or more likely RUN) back to Jen's apartment to get the car, while I waited anxiously in the restroom with Bebe...a few hours later and Sebastian had arrived!!
Is it his love of hitting things? The big sticks or the big sounds? Maybe it's just a boy thing...Sebastian sure loves the drums!!
At least he isn't throwing Auntie Jen's cds all over the floor....or attacking the fireplace....or climbing all over the record player....or.....
Daddy D had a tour with the Kathie Walker Band down to Grants Pass and Trinidad. Here is Sebastian in Grants Pass at their beautiful High School Performing Arts Center, ready to take the stage as the drummer. Not yet little man....
He likes to lift up pillows and stick his head underneath them. Don't ask me where he learned that?!
What else is the Easter brunch table for? Lots of crawling and hiding of course!!
Sebastian and Soren play the piano together. Soren tried giving Sebastian cute little hugs while Mommy G made sure that Sebastian didn't sink his teeth into Soren (Sebastian has started biting--hard!)
Watch out Sebastian! Bebe will eat all your food if you're not careful....
