Trying Pizza for the 1st time

Hi Mima!

Abo!

Go figure- He won't drink from a zippy cup but he'll drink from a bottle of water.

How many cubans can cram into the bathroom and bathe the baby?

The Birthday party!

I am proudest if this sign b/c I did his name all by myself!

Instead of a guest book, I had a guest bear for people to sign.

MMMM the yummy food! If you noticed the sandwich bread is dyed the same colors of the party! This bread came all the way from Florida b/c no bakery in Norfolk/VA Beach would do it for me.

The Front of the table.

Mad's Cake

PINATA!!!!

GREAT Picture of Mad and his Popoa.

He's just too cute no matter what he does!

Maddox and Maya. This is Mad's partner in crime at school. They do EVERYTHING together. The best thing about this picture was that it was not posed. He went up to her and just wrapped his little arms around her. My boy has good taste, she's a cutie!

Mad's Teacher Mrs. Bernice.

Ok I have to explain this picture so that's it's understood why I think it's SOOOOO funny. There are just some people who ALWAYS manage to step in dog doo: Marc, My daddy and yes now Abo can be added to the list- although HE managed to step in it in my front yard on his way into my house from the airport. Here he is showing that he made it out of the house without doing it again.

The Games
Pin the tail on the donkey.

Let's see who can blow the beach ball up the fastest!

The Pinata that would not break. Marc finally just dumped all the candy out.


OPENING PRESENTS...
OK he's enjoying opening the gifts! YEAH this is going to go GREAT!


And he's finished opening

Maybe Maya want to open- NOPE

We then enlisted the help of the older kids who enjoyed the impromptu game.

He came back when he heard the noise from the toys...

And of course to play with the box.
OK Here are the pictures I am sure everyone came on here to see- THE CAKE!!!!
Let's blow out the candle

This feels like a cupcake

Let's go in for a taste

Come up for air

And down again

Two Hands

This was the reaction when he realized that everyone was watching him and laughing. He "played" right back.

Yup cake in the hair


A spoon?

Yum huh?
This is the look you get when you take away a child's favorite toy.




It was fun to clean up!
