birthday jamboree

Our belated first birthday party took place yesterday. It was a whole lotta fun! Our guests included Cousin Sam and our friends Joe and Hunter. Oh yeah, we let their parents come too.


I asked Mom and Joe to help us open presents, as Zak and I are still working out the mechanics of our opposable thumbs. We received lots of neat boxes, bags and pieces of tissue paper, as well as some awesome gifts!


Later, birthday cupcakes were ceremoniously dumped on our trays while everyone stared at us expectantly. Zak and I had two words for these gooey confections: Not. Interested. Finally I smeared some icing on my face, and that seemed to appease our unruly audience.


It sure was a great party. We especially enjoyed hanging out with Sam, who told us that this getting older thing just gets better and better (and he should know; he's almost two!). Thanks everyone for coming to our party and for our gifts! We love you all.
