Adam's Birthday

Adam also had a birthday in March. It's really, really official. I no longer have a baby. (We sold all the baby stuff so this is it.) This is Adam enjoying the cold, hard cash from Grandma Beverly. He also got cash from Grandma and Grandpa Bagwell so we got to go shopping a few days later. I don't really remember what he bought. It's been over 3 months, but it may have involved some construction vehicles and Lightning McQueen.

Adam has some issues with opening presents. He wouldn't do it at Christmas, and he wouldn't do it on his birthday. Luckily he has a big brother who LOVES to open presents even if they are not his.

Imagine a whole backpack full of wooden blocks. I bought them right in front of him at the thrift store one day. Fortunately he was distracted by other things, huh? Don't think I'll ever pull that off again. He even took them to bed for ages. Now he builds race tracks out of them.

In honor of my monkey boy (well actually 2 monkey boys) we had some fun monkey cupcakes to celebrate.

Yes, some look a little alienish. (I had some help decorating.) I unfortunately tried a new frosting recipe that wasn't all that sticky, but they turned out pretty cute anyway.
