Birthday Party #2

2018-01-28

This week was my actual birthday on Monday - and we had a snow day! Daddy stayed home with me and we played school and I got to watch Star Wars: A New Hope! And when Mommy came home we made blueberry muffins from scratch!

Playing school on the snow day.

Baking blueberry muffins with Mom.

This is fun. Not as much fun as eating them, though.

I did some more homework during the week - spelling lots of words.

Some of the words I practiced.

Then on Saturday it was time to head back to the kitchen.

Baking again - this time it's my birthday cake!

Lots of eggs make it taste good.

Planning some of the decorations for the cake.

More plans. I made a lot of plans.

Sunday morning we finished decorating the cake and the cookies.

Decorating rocketship and planet cookies.

Putting some finishing touches on the cake.

Here it is: an edible solar system!

And cookies to go with it!

Dressed up for my space party.

When all the planning was done, it was time to go have fun!

Party time!

Mommy lighting the candles.

Happy Birthday to me!

Blowing out the candles before the sprinklers go off!

Pushing Zeke around.

Everybody JUMP!

Winding down at home by pulling out a lot of toys.

Resisting holding still for a nice picture.

And that was it. Mommy made me an awesome cake and some awesome cookies and so many of my friends came to celebrate - it was a great day! I had so much fun - thanks to everyone! Take care!
