Fly's birthday

Some special friends came with us yesterday to celebrate Fly's birthday at a children's museum in the city. Turns out the museum was celebrating its anniversary, too, so there was extra stuff going on. The kids even got a free noisemaker toy.

Fly loved the water play area:



But didn't really like how he looked in uniform:



I pity the people who had to work in this room with kids building things and then knocking them over:



Would you believe some people have told me I have a big mouth?



Fly and his best little buddy loved the romping room:



We can't forget the traditional birthday hand in the face -- one for however many years old you are:



We even got to create art with found objects:



Why is it so hard to get a good picture of me and my boy?



We ended up getting free ice cream twice yesterday:



Eventually, though, we were all so tired that we felt we were just going around in circles:



I think this is proof he had a good time:

Happy Birthday Fly! It looks like a fun celebration. Wasn't he a baby yesterday? They grow up way too quickly.

What a fun day! That last picture is absolutely classic. He looks drunk on fun and ice cream. Definitely one to bring out when he has girlfriends over in high school.

Happy birthday Fly!

That looks like a great museum for kids and adults both. Fly must have slept well, and didn't even need a sleep mask (ha).
