Birthday Mania

The first half of May pretty much turns into a blur of celebrations in our family.

You saw my sister's goofy birthday recap, and now here are Itty Bit/Mommy's fun days...

We had a few friends out to the local bounce house and basically turned the kids loose after pumping them full of pizza, cake, and pop.
Apparently Itty Bit's favorite part of the evening was drinking "orange bubbly". He couldn't get over the fact that he was indeed drinking pop. Which of course meant that his lips and chin matched his shirt for the rest of the party...
These girls wanted to remain anonymous:

Somehow I felt like I got more of a workout just chasing them around.

Umm... now you see why people think Itty Bit could be their kid? :)

Then it was Mommy's turn.
Mr. Daddy scored big by having fresh avocado and pineapple flown from Hawaii! Still tickled pink that he managed to pull that one off! The box arrived that afternoon and he sneakily wrapped it. I was absolutely clueless.
(Having a heckuva time trying to convince him to let me videotape him dancing with the pineapple on his head...)
~
Then Itty Bit got a little crazy with the tiramisu. I think he had flashbacks of his first birthday where everyone was trying to cajole him into smashing face-first into his cake. Except the little bugger did it into EVERYONE'S cake yesterday.

I think he enjoyed it.
In case you think we pump our kid full of sweets, please be assured that this was MOMMY'S plate and Itty Bit got to abscond with a few bites for a photo op - then the tiramisu and coconut cream pie made friends with Mommy's love handles.

And whenever there's cake, the frosting war must not be abandoned... an early casualty:

How stinkin' cute is this little girlie?
Get wild and crazy? Not us?!?

What a great gift from Mr. Daddy! I'm guessing you loved that stuff from Hawaii and that's why he got it? Looks like you both had great parties! Happy Birthdays! :)
