Birthday Celebration #1

Okay, people. We're approaching the big 3 and today was Christopher's first celebration of that milestone. After My Gym with Luca, my mom's group had a gathering of all the kids with July birthdays. Christopher's friend Emily was there with, of course, Christopher's favorite 1 year-old on the planet, Connor. When we got there, CJ spotted the coolest cake ever on the picnic table-- a mermaid cake with M&Ms on it that Emily's mom made. Emily loves "The Little Mermaid" and that is going to be her party theme next week so she did a trial run of the cake and we all voted it a success! Then the kids played and played, despite the crazy heat. This was a new park for us and it was really fun! Chris is fine as long as there are swings and this park had them. They also had this crazy rope structure that CJ found quite interesting...

One of the moms brought these big birthday stickers too for all the kids and I actually let Chris keep his on during nap time, which made him very happy. Anyway, this was just the first of our celebrations. Tomorrow is the big party day which will be at My Gym with all of his friends. And shhhh, don't tell buds but Daddy found info about this air show going on at one of the small local airports so we might check that out this weekend too. They have a B-52 there! Christopher will be in heaven!
