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.....
