This Sunday we celebrated Ben's birthday with the family. His birthday isn't until Friday but it'll be Easter weekend so this Sunday just worked out better.
Ben wanted a Pirate birthday so of course all the boys (and even Lucy) had to get their pirate tattoo's on. I love that his cousin Bryson insisted on getting his right on the middle of his forehead.
Tyler got back into cake making this birthday and made Ben's pirate boat cake. SO much better than anything I could ever make!!!
Little Ben loved his cake
Once again we had issues during the singing of "Happy Birthday." For some reason Ben seemed to think that when the song ended that meant it was time to go. So instead of blowing out the candle he left his seat and his cousin Miles blew it out for him.
So we had to relight the candle and do a redo:
We had more drama when Tyler decided to set down his very heavy present...right on Ben's fingers. It was so sad! But by the time he opened the gift, he was recovered, happy and ready for more presents!
And after opening gifts, Ben got to cut and pig out on cake. I love that even though he didn't get a fork right away, he didn't let that stop him from eating the cake- nope- he just put his face in the cake and chowed down. I wish I had gotten a picture of that!
If Steven wanted a pirate birthday, why did you give Ben one instead? That's just cruel...
ReplyDeleteI didn't know Lucy could get any cuter, but she definitely did with a tattoo! The cake looks impressive as always! And I'm proud of Ben for not crying while being sung to this year...
