Baby Barbeque

On Saturday (the 16th) we had a "Baby Barbecue" for Lijah's birthday. Most of our friends and family were able to make it and it seemed like everyone had a great time. I think the kids had the best time since they spent the whole day playing in the sprinkler.

The highlight of Lijah's day was having free reign over his own cupcake. I started out with a grand plan of making a cake in the shape of a cat's face, but eventually it got whittled down to a cupcake with a cat face scribbled on it with icing. But Lijah didn't mind - it was the best thing he'd had since sliced bread!

Here are a few photos of him being messy, but not too messy, with his cupcake. Good thing the sprinkler was near by to clean him up when he was done!
