Then he opened a few presents in the morning, starting with Madeline's ...
... which was a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle!
I had to go to work, but Summer took the kiddos on a special birthday trip to the zoo.
Then in the evening Oliver opened more gifts -- like this kilt! ...
... and this book! ...
... and these books! ...
... and this take-apart airplane! ...
... and these dinosaur stamps! ...
... and this train set!
Then it was time for cake.
Happy birthday Oliver!
We capped off the day with chair pictures. Compare these with this:
Madeline joined in too.
Later in the week, Mommy Camp included a nice walk to the library with the wagon.
Over the weekend, we had Oliver's birthday party! We started the day picking up provisions -- the kiddos climbed this tree while we waited for a box of coffee from Starbucks.
We had Oliver's party at the same playground as last year. His friends were so busy running around that there's not good photographic evidence of their attendance. But this year no one from Madeline's age cohort came, so she was busy with activities like making up "tricks" to do in the tube slide.
For his part, Oliver played!
He deemed the birthday party a success! ...
... and then returned home to play with his train set and Ninja Turtle.
