Happy Birthday N!



Yup, it was a fire truck cake this year.  More bright red frosting!  As usual, I let him pick out what kind of cake he wanted.  Since I couldn't take him to the store, I found some pictures online and let him have his choice of Thomas, Lightning McQueen, or a fire truck.  A fire truck it is!

We even got to have a little party for him while his Grandma was still here.  (E and I were in China for his actual birthday, so we celebrated a few days late... great parents aren't we!?)  We had four other families over, so there were plenty of kiddos to help celebrate.  I had a rather lofty goal of getting a picture of all the kids at once... and we actually succeeded!  Eight kids sitting nicely on the couch, I think that might be a record!  e, N, Curtis, Drew, Madeline, Josh, Adeline, and Charlee pose for the camera.
His buddies Drew and Josh helped N pick out what presents to open next, while Curtis helped him open his Lincoln Logs.  There were lots of building type toys, so I think daddy was very excited too!  
Of course N wouldn't wear a party hat... but at least we got one on e!  Thanks for coming everyone, we had a great time!

Thanks for inviting us. It was a good time! And it had been ages since I had birthday cake and ice cream. I forgot how yummy the combination is...and, I'm still thinking about it days later! I want some more. hahaha.
