Party Time

Saturday was spent in the suburbs visiting our friends Jon and Suzanne (holding Gil) to celebrate their daughter's, Fayth, 1st birthday. The party was off the hook. Am I allowed to use that phrase?

The house was fully decked out in celebration and the food spread was fantastic. Counting all the kids and parents, the headcount was probably approaching 100. For Gil, this was a good experience to be exposed to a lot of people at one time. He handled it pretty well.

Kidnapped by his surrogate grandmother - Jon's mom Georgia (see picture) - she walked around the party with him for awhile which was nice so Kristen and I could eat and socialize.

However, as 6pm approached, Gil decided to shut down operations. We attempted to revive him with a fresh diap and some quiet time in hopes he might fall asleep, but to no avail so we headed home.

Unfortunately, a bit earlier than planned. His shirt did match the dominant color in Fayth's room and he did enjoy the selection of art on the changing table.

All in all, it was great to see everyone and the party was definitely that!
