To everyone at Rustins' party, I thank you for coming but I never want to throw a party again. I get way too anxious, nervous, and claustrophobic. As much as I wanted to do just ONE party with friends and both families, I will never do that again. I think I am socially retarded (where did I get that from?) and I hate when people are there and I can't visit. I go into people-pleaser mode and feel like a chicken with it's head cut off. It's like your wedding reception; cut the cake, do the dance, pictures, it goes by so quickly. I guess just like the everything, this is a trial----next year will not be so chaotic. I have better expectations and I understand that everyone you invite might actually show up. 
Rustin was such a pill, he has three teeth coming in right now!

Rustin was FINE! He was on demand, tired, and in mouth pain. We ALL have been there and we get it! Don't worry... it was terrific! We had a lovely time. Thanks for letting us share his special day. It was nice to see Dustin's family. They are wonderful. You were a GREAT hostess!
I'm sad we couldn't have been there. Thanks so much for posting the pictures--you "get it" and the pictures help us when we don't get to be there for occasions like parties.
I'm sure you were a great hostess! YOU always feel worse about gatherings than your guests, so don't worry about it! And folks understand if a 1-year-old isn't the happiest--so much going on can make anyone a little cranky! :-)
Next year, make it more low key and just enjoy. All the kids care about it cake and presents--so cater to the kids! I LOVE YOU!!!
I thought that the party went great. Everyone had a great time hanging our, well at least I did. I love to see Dustin's family too. You are awesome. Lvoe ya.
Wish I could have been there too. I know how you feel... I get the same way when I have a lot of people over sometimes. Your pics are adorable and I am so glad that you post them! It's fun to see since we are so far away. Love you!
