August is almost over, and what a month! Mom and dad and I went back to Baltimore to celebrate a very special occasion--my birthday, of course! I got the best birthday gift ever: spending the day with heaps of friends and relatives. I'm such a lucky guy.
Our neighbor, Judy, brought over an amazing gift that she made with her very own hands: a giant cupcake just for me! I actually didn't know what a cupcake before my birthday. Why?! Why, I ask, would my parents keep this delicious sweet treat a secret?
Hmm, maybe I can see why I don't get to eat this every day. What a mess! Thanks everyone for coming to celebrate my big day, and special thanks to Judy for the cupcakes and auntie Jess for being my official photographer!
My innate talent for directing alternative, budget films emerges...directing or thievery.
People, this is serious. A week from today will be my very first birthday! I know mom and dad a planning a little fete in my honor. They haven't said anything to me about it specifically, but it is hard not to notice all the scraps of colored craft paper flying around the house these days. I'll still look surprised of course, but now I have some time to plan my outfit. I was testing these sunnies out the other day.
What do you think? Are they party appropriate? After all, I don't want to look too excited and spend all my cool points in the first few minutes. This way I can maintain a little mystery, at least until I get my first birthday kiss. Eeeee, I can't wait!
Busted! My lip, that is. Please don't be concerned; I'm quite alright. I took a bit of a spill exploring the bathroom. I mean, there's only a limited time during which I'll be able to fit around the back of the toilet, so I just had to check it out. It turns out that my balance isn't great yet, and with all these new teeth coming in, well, it's just like 1+1=2, right?
Mom got pretty freaked out for a while. But even in the panic of my bloody face she was still worried about getting blood on my shirt. Priorities, mom!
We got some great news last night. My Auntie Katherine gave birth to a baby girl. Welcome to the world, Jane! I'm practicing my kisses for you.
Open mouthed, of course. Didn't you know that I'm part French!
