Already?

Well, 12/26 has come and gone. Could it be that Simon is one? That is just plain nuts.

Mommy would do much better as a general contractor than me, so we put her in charge of building the toys. We (I mean she) put this little gym downstairs and he's LOVING it.











Now on to the birthday party. We sincerely thank everyone who braved the elements of snow and our busy street to attend the festivities.

Here was a little lunch before most of the guests arrived.



Grandma Fran was a big help over the weekend.



I want that yogurt, and I want it NOW!



Of course not all of the food ends up where it's supposed to go.



The birthday boy got a special visit from Jack Dempsey (AKA Papa).



With Nana.



With great-aunt Liz.





And what would a birthday party be without the singing of a certain song (also, please forgive me for the outburst you'll hear, but I had to make sure Theo didn't destroy the cake)...



This past weekend one of our friends, Michelle Mertz, was visiting. She was in an earlier post as we stayed with her when we were in Santa Rosa in July.
