Mom's Birthday!!

Woohooo!!!! It was mom's XX birthday!! I decided to drive us all to our favorite Persian restaurant for lunch!

 

Once we got there, I surprised mom with her gift.. my new found ability to hold and eat my own food!!

 

Ooooo, impressive!

 

Gimme my bread back, dad!!

 

Here we are at my favorite toy store at the Polaris mall!!! We've been there 4 times without ever buying anything and I get to play with all of the toys!!

 

Ooooo... this tunnel reminds me of a day about 11 months ago....

 

Except there wasn't anyone else in there back then!!! What the??!!

 

Mom and I decided we'd blast off together to explore the universe... not sure who invited the little redhead copilot.

 

I managed to find an isolated planet to call my own...

 

... but like most planets at the mall, a little girl came and stole it from me.

 

hmmm... what toys have we here in this lady's bag?

 

once I returned to earth, I went on a safari with my new friend Lionel the Lion

 

mom came along too

 

now that i'm a big boy, i don't cry in these silly little spaceship rides

 

look how high i am in this helicopter

 

the recession is tough so mom and i got part time jobs working in an ice cream truck

 

what flava you want? We've got chocolate and vanilla!

 

 

Though my mission is complete, NASA still has me stop by occasionally for some consultative work.

 

Later that evening we stopped at the park.

 

Is it just me or is this an awesome outfit!?!! Thanks Granduncle Phuc!

 

I had more fun with mom on the swings...

 

 

and dad showed me how to slam dunk

 

Later that night Tiger, Meggie, Keith, and Lisa stopped by to have birthday cake (numbers on the cake have been hidden to protect the innocent updaters) with us. I was already sleeping from the long day to enjoy any cake...again.
