After reading one of our books where the mouse painted pumpkins with lots of different kinds of faces on them, Gulliver decided we should paint our pumpkin instead of carving it. I agreed that was a great idea, so we got the paints out and had at it...
2 purple eyes, a green nose, 3 red mouths, blue hair, and 2 yellow ears. It's the perfect pumpkin!
Gulliver had school on his birthday, so he got to bring treats in that day. He decided he wanted Thomas the Train cupcakes. So I told him that sounded great -- but only if he helped me make them. He did his share and more. Pouring in all the ingredients, stirring everything up, and lining the cupcake tray...
Placing the "sticker" into each cupcake...
The finished treat!
I couldn't ask for a better helper.
We went to a Halloween party at the playground. Gulliver had been saying for a week that he wanted to dress up as a ladybug. So ladybug it was...
He enjoyed singing Happy Birthday and opening presents. And he really enjoyed those cupcakes. I think he ate 3 of them throughout the course of the day!
Happy Birthday, my dear sweet 3-year old Gulliver.
I love you bunches and bunches and BUNCHES!!!
