Since Daddy wasn't with us for Ethan's first birthday we are celebrating his birthday this Saturday (the 8th) at Mama and Papa Zee's. This was my first time ever making a birthday cake for Ethan so I thought I would make a practice cake first just in case I messed up. Ethan really likes turtles - "Tur tuh" so that is why his cake is in the shape of a turtle.
It turned out wonderfully. We brought it to Monday Playgroup to share with everyone and it was gobbled up. Moms and kids both wanted seconds and there was none left to bring home- which made me extremely happy! If you look closely you can see there is one candle and a half candle- heee hee.
His one and half birthday was on Saturday Nov.1st but Mama and Papa Zee were in Tanzania but it was Bonfire Night here in Bentham so he got to watch a lantern parade with a huge dragon lantern on wheels, drummers in the Battala band which Uncle Rob was in and a massive fire and fireworks show! Pretty awesome half birthday.
Ethan was pretty relaxed and I don't think he realized what was going on around him.
Later that evening, Dad and Ethan hanging out before bedtime.
Below is Ethan being silly!

Upset about his piano not working.
Halloween night, daddy made a fire to keep us toastie warm. We decorated the door with a witch's hat, and candles outside. Not on the video are the Trick or Treaters who knocked on our door 5-6 times and everytime, Ethan would look at all the kids in awe. Then as they left, he would try to follow them but ofcourse we held him back. This resulted in him screaming in anger and protest.
