The big day is here! Dexter's big birthday number 1 has arrived. A number of pictures were taken, so we're going to take a few days to put them up in his blog. Lots of good food was on hand; Lola sent most of the food from Los Angeles with Tita Nini since she couldn't make this festive day.

First off, here's the cake that Tita Nini got for not-so-little Dexter.



And here's the man of the hour. Took me a few days, but I found Dexter a genuine birthday shirt. It's actually a Mexican wedding shirt, kind of the same thing, right?



Dexter's godfather came by to wish his godson a happy birthday.



So here we are, me, Yancy, Rob, Dexter and Rodney posing. Dexter could probably start his own boy band with this group.



Uncle Todd (Suzie's uncle) is giving Dexter a hold while mom beams with pride over Dexter's first birthday.
