Happy Birthday Daddy!

Helping to open Daddy's gifts

Cake!

It was Greg's birthday yesterday so Emily and I baked him a yummy chocolate cake yesterday morning. She started singing Happy Birthday to Daddy in the morning before he left the house. It was adorable and we managed to get some of it on video at dinnertime. I'll try to upload and post that soon. I made chicken picatta for dinner and we all enjoyed that. After dinner, she helped Greg open his gifts, in fact present time was a very quick activity! She moved from one gift to the next and then just as quick through the cards. She had a lot of fun with it, though. We gave her a very small piece of cake after dinner, it wasn't fair not to after she'd helped make it and she loved it (what's not to love?!?). Tonight, the next night, we asked her if she wanted another small piece again. She asked for candles in it (we didn't do it) and then asked if we were going to open presents again. If it was up to Emily, birthday celebrations would last for days!

We'll take Greg out to dinner one night this weekend for a birthday dinner out. We're just waiting for him to choose the restaurant!
