Every 365 days...there must be a pattern

As a new parent, it has begun to dawn on me that childrens' Birthdays seem to reoccur with some regularity. As evidence, our buddies Nina and Jake invited us, for the second time even , to their son Akio's party.

(Aki investigates some ribbon. Almost as fun as the gift itself).

(Jake in the fray).

(Cupcakes. Great idea!
If you look carefully you'll see they stack is supported by Legos. Cool!)

(Time for some serious eating).

(Cute but Jake keep yer boy away from my daughter).

Footage (get it, nudge nudge)

Some of you careful viewers may have noticed that the last post used images so old that Sylvia's leg was still in it's cast. Lest it be thought that the Sweetbean spent her month of healing in a swoon, here is video footage (pun intended) to the contrary.

We are happy to report that her leg is fully healed.
