Happy Birthday to Baby!

Sunday was my niece Maureen's birthday. She sang "Happy birthday to Baby" to herself all day. When asked what she wanted for her birthday party, she first said she wanted black party hats. Is she going to be goth as a teenager? Later, she said she wanted blue, so Valerie went with it and put on a Blue's Clues party. Always creative, she had the kids act out the whole thing, looking for clues which led to the cake, which was frosted like a Blue's pawprint. One of the clues was a box of candles, and when Maureen found it, she opened it right up and planted one right into the cake then started blowing.

Here she is licking the frosting off of the beaters. Adorable!! (taken with my camera phone... not the best photo, obviously.)
