Birthday Observed

Since Love Bug was sick on his birthday and feeling much better by Friday, daddy and I decided to spend the day with just him to celebrate his birthday.  We had been wanting to make him a bear at Build-A-Bear since we didn't make him one before he was born.  We had originally planned to do that on Friday without him but it was even more fun with him.  We let him pick out his animal and he chose a very cute brown dog with floppy ears.  He loved the dog and had fun throwing it and having us pick it up over and over again while we were at the mall.

After the mall we went to lunch at the Fred Pub.  It was our first time there and we really enjoyed it.  It reminded me of the pubs in England except it was clean and smelled clean.  The food was really good and Love Bug enjoyed the lunch we brought him along with a little bit of our food.  He especially loved haming it up for everyone around.  He gave great big smiles and waves to anyone who interacted with him.  We're going to have to watch out for him!

After that we took a quick cruise through the new shoe store.  It's a great shoe store and they gave Love Bug a balloon.  He was very excited about the balloon and enjoyed playing with it.

We knew when we got back in the car to go home that he was going to fall asleep pretty quickly, which he did, so we enjoyed a nice ride around the area on our way to pick up Roo.

All in all we had a great day with the birthday boy and are looking forward to giving them each a day alone with mommy and daddy on their birthday every year.

Grandma and grandpa came the next day and we had fun celebrating even more!
