We checked out the special "birthday peektures" we had made the day before. I can't believe how old the boys are getting!
Once P was dressed and ready for school, in his birthday tee (thanks, Grandma Paige!) and crazy hat,
he and I loaded up a bunch of these cupcakes for his class and headed out the door. (Okay, fine. By loaded up I mean we put them in the car. I had made a makeshift carrier for them the night before so they wouldn't topple over on the way to school and counted out the right number. I'm type A like that.)
I added a maraschino cherry to the top of each cone just before we left for school. I'm not sure if the cupcake cones or the cherries were the bigger hit!
In honor of the birthday of Dr. Seuss, P's class had a special surprise visitor! (The surprise visitor may have been Riley's dad, who did an AMAZING Cat in the Hat impersonation! And if it were Riley's dad, that would be a surprise, because we wouldn't want Riley - or his classmates - to find out. You know, if he was the visitor. Which I didn't say he was.)
The Cat in the Hat read his story to the class, and he even knew that it was P's birthday. P was totally thrilled - he's still talking about it and hoping the Cat in the Hat will visit again, or maybe even come to his house.
Just before P's birthday snack, the Cat led the class in a rendition of "Happy Birthday to You!" for P and Dr. Seuss/the Cat in the Hat.
To cap off a celebratory morning, P took two of his "bes' friens," Hamza (pictured below) and Riley to "pizza and chips" (Subway) for lunch and then had the boys over for a short playdate.
Happy birthday, newly-turned 4 (gulp!) year old!
