Le Petit Prince

Tate's school made him a crown for his birthday. His was the first birthday for the new center and they went all out in the craft (and snuggle!) department, coordinating a group card and everything. No wonder he likes it there so much.

Kings for a Day

What birthday party would be complete without the proper headgear? West and Tate had their own toppers and wore them to great effect at their joint bash this weekend. Even though they shared a party, they each had their own cake (a zebra ice cream cake for West, strawberry whipped cream cake for Tate). Many photos were snapped, most of whom will appear in future posts. For now, here are a few featuring the kids and their festive accessories. I make a brief appearance as well, thanks to Aunt Andi.

O-N-E!

West had a mighty fine birthday surrounded by lots of adoring fans. It was a day full of new experiences, with lots of likes and dislikes. Underneath his sunny disposition, our little babe has some strong opinions.

Dislike #1: Fancy birthday hat

Dislike #2: Cake
West showed his disdain for cake by throwing it on the ground - and on his father. We captured it all on video but it's too long to post here so you'll just have to use your imagination. Trust me - it was hysterical.

Like #1: Blackberries

He preferred to have a blackberry instead of cake. I'm secretly proud of him.

Like #2: Pushing his new red wagon all over Golden Gate Park

Thanks Mimi & Papa!

Like#3: Bubbles

Especially when blown by his auntie Kate.

Dislike #3: Being taken away from his new red wagon

Like#4: Being reunited with his new red wagon

His present to us (and all of you!) was a 2.5 hour nap after the party, which is the only reason I was able to write this post.

Happy, happy birthday West!
