Part I - The birthday celebration started in Kentucky. It was my Grandpa's birthday on Sept. 23 so we had a pre-party for both of us. I saw all the Murphys and had a great time! They had cake. I asked for a cupcake and Mama built a "cupcake" out of banana wheat pancakes and apple butter layer in a cupcake foil. I'm not sure who she thinks she's kidding... I let her get away with this kind of stuff now and again.
Part II - We went to the beach in the morning again with our good friends. It was terrific, 90 degrees on the beach at 9am! We ate bagels, played and swam and built a sand castle. After a nice nap I woke up and again requested a cupcake (this was my birthday after all). This time Daddy got me a cupcake... the next day my poo was pink. I'm a little worried that may have been my last pink cupcake.
