Anderson still doesn't understand how to open the gifts, but once they were opened he had a blast playing with all the wrapping, boxes, and presents. Luckily for Anderson, his friends Caden and Jordan were there to help him open the presents. They too seemed to enjoy themselves.
Since Josh had to work today, we decided to have the party during Anderson's normal nap time so that Josh could be there. We were hoping that this wouldn't create a cranky Anderson. He did a great job until it was time for cake. But of course, for scrapbooking purposes, I needed the first cake eating pictures. So we quickly sang to him and had him eat cake.
At first, he didn't know what to do with the cake. He looked at it for a moment. Then, he took a large handful and stuffed his face. He enjoyed the cake, allowed for a few pictures, and then crashed for a long nap. What a day! 
Thank you to all of you whole came and shared his big day with him. We all greatly appreciate the company and gifts.
