April 20

Tonight was our friend Owen's first birthday party. Audrey has been to enough birthday parties now that she understands howthey work. She has even been playing "birthday party" this week at home with me. She wants to sing Happy Birthday, then blow out pretend candles, and then eat a bite of her play food birthday cake...over and over and over again!

So, needless to say, she was pretty excited about Owen's party...where they were going to have real candles and real birthday cake! Before we left, she was very concerned about whether or not her cake would have icing on it. I assured her it would have icing, and when we got to the party we saw cupcakes with TONS of icing on them. Again, this made for a very excited Audrey, who licked every bit of icing off her cupcake (good thing it was the whipped kind, so maybe a little less sugar/fat?) and did not touch any of the cupcake itself.
Happy birthday Baby "Oh-no"! (as his big brother and the other kids sometimes call him).
