April 4, 2012 - Birthday Boy |

My little Boy is growing up – we rarely even call him the
Blobster any more. It doesn’t seem an appropriate nickname for such a big boy.
Mostly we call him Gage-a-rooni; don’t ask me how we came up with that, I’m
sure it had something to do with making up a song to make him laugh. I will
keep you informed of any new nicknames that come up, which is inevitable.
We had a family party for Gage this year. I wanted to do a
vintage rocket theme, but it didn’t turn out as grand as my
Pinterest board seemed. (It turns out I’m not Martha Stewart after all) But I had fun getting
everything ready to make the day special for my baby (who is no longer a baby,
as we have already established). And Gage was so excited, hopping around and
asking me all day if he could eat his cake. Birthdays pretty much equate to
cake for him. Which I guess never really changes.

My first attempt at making/icing a cake. It looks ok if you don't look too closely. But it was tasty! Thanks to Michelle for some basic tips. |

Rockets - mini 'pinatas' Gage helped me make them, and had fun pulling the strings to make them explode |

I felt very crafty making the table settings |
