So for his actual birthday, and as a prelude to the big party that will be happening at Gaylord Place on Saturday, Declan's mom and I (and Granny!) took him out for a supper at the local Moxie's Restaurant.
He did a wonderful job of feeding himself chicken fingers and fries. And boy did his eyes light up when he was brought a dish of strawberry ice cream with a sparkler in it! (Chubby hand + flaming sparkler incident narrowly averted.)
And granny? Got him his very own little lightsabre. Which was quickly smeared in ketchup. Good granny.
The process of a 1 year-old feeding himself ice cream with an oversized spoon is a labourious one. See for yourself.
Ahhh...this is sweet !! Happy Birthday to the "May Baby" ( I just happen to be one, myself !! ) Tina
