We had a small celebration for Emma's birthday this week. After much deliberation about what sort of party we would have, we decided to go for the all-family affair. Alex has been so busy in the past few weeks that we were lucky to even have him around for a few short hours! We learned this birthday that Emma loves presents, loves corn on the cob, and that she feels that her birthday cake is all for her. Next year she will be presented with one piece, and I will keep most of the cake far away from her after she blows out the candles!
