Birthday Madness

Today we had Presto's first birthday party and it was a total success. Presto's cake came out pretty good, he totally loved it, every time we walked by it today he would get super excited. We only had a few kids which was good because they did not need anymore stimulation. One chased around another and tried to kiss the other one constantly, and then when he did not want anymore kisses he started biting. They all made pretty good messes with their cupcakes which is totally cute.

I kind of thought he would make more of a mess, but he just was really not sure what to do with it. It must be kind of weird to be strapped in a chair have cake thrown in front of you and have like 20 people watching your every move. It definitely took him a little while to get into it. Later tonight we went out to dinner and had one of the best moments of the day. It was someone else's birthday, and the waiters and chefs came out to sing. Everyone in the restaurant sang and then clapped, and Presto thought it was the best thing ever. He loves to clap, and he loves when others clap. If he could have given a standing ovation he would have. He clapped with serious bravado. He bounced up and down. He laughed. It was fantastic. Now we all need sleep.
