Did Somebody Say There Was a Party?

OK, so it took me two days to post my birthday party pictures. I'm so sorry, but I'm a busy guy. I've been busy getting a new tooth. Just this morning my second tooth butted its way through my gums. And mommy thought I was fussy because I got my vaccinations on Tuesday. Well, she should have a tooth trying to punch its way through her gums....

Anyway, back to my party. It was so cool. I got to the party at right about 4. I rode to the party with Doll and Bird. My MiMi took care of me while my mommy and daddy got things ready for the party. I didn't really understand why it took them so long, but when I got to the party I understood a little better. Those of you who are reading this who know my mommy well know that she can really throw a party.





The party was at the park across from our new house (Phelps Grove Park). It is a really pretty park and it has swings. Swings are my favorite. Anyway, when I got to the party, I saw my Nanny Josephine and Great-Granddad Cash. They held me and talked about how big I was getting. There was a tent at my party and daddy and Papa handled the cooking. They made hamburgers and hotdogs and grilled chicken. My mommy and Aunt T made cupcakes for me and everyone else. My Doll made homemade ice cream. My mommy made lots of other things too.


The biggest surprise at the party was the kiddie pool full of balls. Yes, you read that right. I got to play with 500 plastic balls at my birthday party.

Oh yeah, someone asked me who came to my party. Well, lots of family and friends came. But, if you want to know who came who was little like me -- well there were 4 others: Declan (from Oklahoma City), Sam (my buddy who likes hats), Addy (she's cute) and Tyler (he's a big kid -- he's 3).

And Ms. Amy came too. She took lots of pictures. Maybe, if you are lucky, I'll add the link to those pictures when it comes in.

Birthday Weekend

As you all know by now, last Thursday was my first birthday. We had a party from Thursday to Sunday. I have never had so much fun. I was the center of attention for four whole days.

On Thursday, my MiMi and Papa came to town. I was so happy to see them. It has been about 3 months since I saw Papa and over a month since I saw MiMi, although I Skype with them almost every week. After I played some with MiMi and Papa, and showed them how I scoot across the floor, we went out for dinner for my birthday to Ocean Zen with Doll and Granddad.

I'm not sure what is so special about Ocean Zen, but all of the adults seemed to like it. It just seemed like a dark restaurant with funny looking food to me. But I liked the Aquarium and the fish -- and the pretty waitress who kept smiling at me. Plus, the pretty waitress brought me a birthday treat -- a banana and ice cream.

On Friday, I got to hang out with MiMi and mommy while Papa and daddy played golf with Granddad. Daddy said he was playing golf for work, but I'm not sure I believe him. My mommy left me at home for a while with my MiMi and we had sooooooooo much fun. We played on the floor with all of my toys and I chased after doggy Owowowo (translation: Olivia in Grahamspeak). I can get so close to Owowowo and then she runs away. But sometimes she brings her toys to me and lets me hold them.

On Friday night, I stayed with MiMi and Papa while mommy and daddy got to go out. We played some more on the floor and my Papa fed me dinner. My Mimi gave me my bath and put me to bed. They are so much fun.
Saturday was more of the same. Playing with MiMi and Papa. But, Saturday was different because Bird came to town for my party on Sunday. Everyone, including Doll, Granddad and Bird, mommy and daddy, and MiMi and Papa went to an Italian restaurant for dinner. I tried lots of new things, including salami and ravioli and meatballs. So much yummy food. My MiMi and daddy told me that I am 1/4 Italian and that my MiMi's dad and mom were both full Italian. I think that is cool.
Stay tuned and tomorrow I will tell you about my birthday bash.....
