Oliver Celebrates Birthday # 1 in Regal Style as befits the “King of All the Wild Things”
So last week’s babysitting went like this – easy Zoe (2 hrs) on Monday, Mister Go-go gadget legs Oliver on Tuesday (10 hrs)and back to Zoe on Wednesday for six hours – actually all of th days were fairly easy! I say “fairly” because with Oliver nothing is ever REALLY easy with Oliver!
The week ended on a high-note though as Oliver celebrated his 1st birthday on a very special Pi day (check out why here) Oliver’s mom and dad went all out and threw Mister Man a great Wild Things birthday party!! Here’s a fact filled post about the King of All the Wild Things!!
My favorite fact is that his favorite book is Dracula…..a counting book that I read to him all the time!!
Mom, a talented baker, whipped up a great Wild Thing birthday cake and Oliver didn’t even fall into the batter. No wait that’s In the Night Kitchen! Any way here is the cake…..
Now silly granddad thought he was going to get to partake of the cake, but alas the cake was only for the King of All the Wild Things, which is of course Mr. Oliver! Here is Mr Oliver attacking his cake!!
And here is what’s left of that beautiful cake. Wait I see the ears!!
Here is the rest of the cake……
The Winner and Still “King of All the Wild Things” – Mister Oliver Edward Karn!!
All in all it was a wonderful day full of treats for everyone, especially Oliver who got some neat toys that we can play with on Thursday, especially the t-u-n-n-e-l that our daughter gave him – he will be contained in it, at least for a few minutes!! One of the nicest things about the day was that Kathy’s Uncle Jim could attend and spend time with both Oliver and Zoe…..
Jim and his wife Nathalie with Zoe!
Now we only have to wait six months until Zoe “Queen of All the Calm Things” has her birthday!! Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to go exercise because it’s Zoe tomorrow and Wednesday and then Oliver on Thursday and sleep on Friday!!!
