Everyone was tired and grumpy today, recovering from all the excitement of a visit from Gramma. However, we managed to pull ourselves together for a little teatime celebration in honor of Thing 2's birthday. He specifically requested milk, cookies and "the yittle muffins with the byack circles" which we finally realized meant poppy seed muffins.
As has become the tradition for the last couple of years, Daddy took Thing 2 out to run errands while the rest of us blew up balloons and laid out presents. Thing 2 was delighted when he got back home. "Bayoons!" he cried when he got in. I surprised him by putting chocolate milk in the teapot. There were earth-friendly handmade and handed down presents from the girls, Lego vehicles from big brother and an energy expending punching bag from the Mom and Dad; but of course it was the two dollar bop balloon that was the ultimate favorite of the day.
