Tristan Thompson’s baby mama Maralee Nichols shares rare photos of son Theo at his 1st birthday party without NBA star
TRISTAN Thompson's baby mama, Maralee Nichols, has celebrated their son, Theo's first birthday with a lavish bash.
The fitness trainer took to her Instagram Stories to share photos and videos from the tot's special day.
In one photo, Maralee posed with the birthday boy in front of a massive blue, white, and silver balloon display and a huge baby blue sign decorated with white snowflakes.
On the sign were the words "Theo's Winter ONEderland" in cursive writing - a play of words to honor Theo turning one.
With her son in her arms, Maralee stood in the center donning a white long-sleeved dress, knee-high silver boots, and her long brunette locks flowing down.
Theo appeared to sport white shorts and a blue jacket with his eyes glued on the display behind them.

The photo also showed two clear cases on either side of them - one holding a stand filled with sweet treats decorated with baby blue icing.
The other case held a two-tier cake decorated similarly to their backdrop with a trail of balloons down the side, keeping with the color scheme.
Maralee gave a closer look at the dessert in the following clip, showing three adorable white bears on the cake, including one that held the number 1 at the top.
The baby blue cake also had Theo's name spelled out in silver lettering in the center.
The youngster seemed to enjoy his big day as his mother also shared a snap of him sitting in his new toy car.
In the pic, Theo gripped the steering wheel of the black convertible with an orange interior wrapped with a giant white bow on the front.
Maralee filmed the sweet moment from above, hiding the little one's face from the camera.
WINDER WONDERLAND
Elsewhere in her Stories, Maralee showed off more photos and videos from her only child's birthday celebrations.
His back was to the camera, and he had on only a diaper with tulle wrapped around him.
A second photo showed Maralee alone in the same tulle outfit, this time showing off a baby bump.
It's unclear if that photo was taken prior to Theo's birth or recently, and it got fans buzzing about another potential pregnancy.
A third photo showed her hanging from a sheer swing, again showing off a bump.
She did not respond to the pregnancy speculation in her comments, nor did she reply to the commenters wishing Theo a happy birthday.
In her caption, she wrote: "I can not believe you are already one. Spending the past 365 days with you have been the best days of my life. You are the sweetest little boy, your smile brightens up any room.
"You are my greatest blessing, my world, my heart in human form. God knew I needed you. I love you more than anything. Happy 1st birthday to my angel, Theo."
SILENT DAD
However, Tristan did not publicly acknowledge his baby son's birthday and remained quiet on social media.
It has been reported that the athlete has not met his son and is not a part of his life.
News that Tristan, 31, fathered a child with Maralee broke just before she gave birth to their son.
The NBA star was supposedly in an exclusive relationship with Khloe Kardashian, 38, at the time, and the pair were preparing to welcome their second child via surrogate.
