At the beginning of every month from Sept to Jan there is a birthday in our family, except for October where there are 3. We are armed with loads of candles, whip cream & wrapping paper. All that's left to be done is to decide on the kind of cake & the decoration on top. I try to stear away from themes that will get a little complicated like: a star wars battle scene, Blues, Joe & Steve all sitting on the thinking chair, or other such darring exploits. I usually help with the decision making process.
"So, you can have a flower, or a smily face"
It's pretty basic, really. Somehow we also started trying to slip in a few of the birthday person's "favorites" into dinner. So tonight for Ryan it will be:
Teriyaki Chicken
Rice
Ninjin & Gobo Kimpira
and of course...............
..........furofuki daikon. This is probobly Ryan's all time favorite food....ever!

Memo to mothers to be: get your exercise BEFORE you have a 4 kg baby lodged in uncomfortable places, and then don't be alarmed when he has a 'lop-sided-cone-head' and is terribly unattractive. He might just pan out eventually.

Didn't Trav weigh more? I remember when u brought Ryan home that night; I woke up & Josh said, "Here, u wanna see the new baby?" & I was about to start "Aww"ing when he pulled the baby blanket off his head & I just kinda sat there speechless for a minute, haha! And Josh goes, "Meet Cone-head!"
Those are absolutely beautiful pix of him, BTW; wish u wld upload the one of him under the blue playground equipment, normal size tho' (or send it to me :D) so I can see it bigger.
