And the celebration begins! The first birthday is anticipated and celebrated with such enthusiasm. For some babies, it’s their introduction to sugar – a passageway into childhood. Once they get that first taste, there is no going back. Nolan’s first birthday was celebrated with all the fanfare and I was so happy to capture his first taste of birthday cake and his joy in having it all to himself to do whatever he wanted. Crazy enough, the adults, along with myself were encouraging him to dive in and make a mess. Enjoy the highlights of Nolan’s first birthday celebration!
