The Story

After 26 hours of labor, Kyle Christopher Harker was born on February 3rd, 2008 at 2:03 am via C-Section. He weighted 8 lbs 7 oz and was 20 3/4 inches long. He spent his first 3 days in NICU with pneumonia and on antibiotics but he is now a very healthy, growing boy! He is certainly the light of my life and I can't tell you how incredibly lucky I feel to be so blessed with such a wonderful gift.

Kyle's First Birthday!



We started off the morning of our FIRST birthday with some organic waffles with syrup and some soy yogurt


Then we got dressed in our special "Birthday Boy" t-shirt

Mommy got some balloons but cousin Julia liked them and had a hard time sharing them




We opened presents with Cousins Andrew, Marin and Julia all helping!
I don't think Kyle even touched the wrapping paper he had so much help
He got some mega blocks, books, clothes, shoes, puzzles, and balls to throw


Then it was time for cake!
Grandma Marilyn made a special dairy-free oatmeal cake with soy frosting


Kyle played in it but never actually ate any on his own.

Here is all his loot!
Kyle had a wonderful first birthday! He wasn't sure what the hype was about but knew it was a special day just for him.
Thank you to all of you that helped make this such an amazing day!
