Recap: Birthdays and boyfriends

The family is getting ready to celebrate Allie's 1st birthday. Kelly reveals that birthdays are special since they come once a year. Gil jokes that they feel like they are coming 25 times and that's once every other week which creates a big party. Kelly says that they are a partying family.

When they get to John and Alyssa's house, they noticed that it's very clean and when you have the family there it's hard to keep it that way.

The oldest children decided to help Alyssa get ready for the party. As they are decorating the strawberries with white chocolate sauce, Alyssa gets a little upset with her family since they keep eating them.

Gil comes up with the idea to take the kids to the park to give Alyssa some space. The boys give Kelly a scream since they are doing some tricks on the swings.

The family heads over to meet the Smith Family. Tori is currently in a relationship with Bobby Smith. Bobby has two little sisters which causes Tori to worry that this will be overwhelming for the family.
Back when John and Alyssa were courting, Tori used to be their chaperone but Alyssa had to requested a new chaperone. Tori was so strict about them getting to close to each other but now that she is in a relationship, Bobby and Tori often link arms and get a little closer than what she would allow.

Tori is happy that Bobby is very good with kids. Zach warns that if you married a guy, who is good with little kids then they are normally a kid at heart which Whitney agrees to that.

The only thing keeping Tori and Bobby from getting married is that they are still a year or two away from graduating school. They both want to finished their education.

The family comes back to the house and find that everything is ready. Alyssa went all out for her daughter's first birthday but doesn't think that her family appreciates the elegance.

The family enjoys time with John's side of the family. Some of the siblings would love to know if Alyssa is expecting baby #2 and she's not pregnant. She and John agree with only having six to eight children but not 19 like her mom.
