That's my boy!

What a fun night!  Tonight we celebrated Henry's birthday with the Uncle Chelle, Uncle Fun, the girlies, Nana and Tim.  (Grampy was feeling under the weather - we missed you!)  The highlight of the evening was, of course, the cake smash.  True to his Jackson genes, Henry was a chocolate champ.  He started by plucking out and licking the candle and then dove into the cake with great gusto.  There was no tentative exploration here - it was full force chocolate joy.  But even in the midst of the feast Henry was compelled to announce when an airplane flew overhead - chocolate hand flung in the air.  Jack was a great big brother, helping to open presents and blow out the candle and leading the singing in his best concert voice.  Some of Jack's other highlights were taking pictures of Uncle Tim (note the half-head shot in the slideshow) and rescuing the girlies from the tree in an exciting game of "firefighter".  And, of course, the cupcakes that he worked so hard to make.  Delicious! On the way inside after waving goodbye to everyone Jack noticed that he had stubbed his toe.  Luckily, it was an easy fix.  "A cupcake will feel me better!"  Words to live by.

Henry loved all of his new toys and getting cuddled and cheered by some of his favorite people.   Thanks everyone for a wonderful party.   Click on the arrow below to see a slideshow of the evening.
