I am 1 and Riley is 3!
Hooray.
Beach Grandma made us special magic vegan cakes! (They were really good!)
We brought the cakes to the WOW Museum and invited some of our closest friends.
For instance, there’s … this guy! (I kid, I kid. This is Riley’s friend Levi.)
Tia Peggy was there, so that was great.
CHUGGA CHUGGA CHOO CHOO.
While I played with the kid stuff, big sis was off in the engineering department.
She also checked out the Newtonian Physics room.
Hooray for 9.81 meters per second per second!
Riley is not usually allowed on ladders.
After playtime, we all gathered in one of the rubber rooms party areas for cake and presents.
Riley’s incredibly good at this.
Oooh! RedFruit!
GAH IT IS SOUR!
I still like it, though. Ooooh–cake too!
Riley’s friend Isabella (aka Rosabella) helped me with my burfday crown.
The WOW Museum is serious about scheduling their rubber rooms party areas.
After we overloaded on vegan cake and RedFruit, big sis opened up her presents.
This equine music box was a big hit.
Someone showed Riley how to pretend to care about the cards.
“Oooh! A card! Just what I wanted!”
“Seriously, where are the presents?”
YES! Pipe cleaners!
After much clapping and merriment, Riley went to the costume-and-stage area.
The “princess dress with crazy-lady bag and construction hat” look is the new black.
Riley actually got Dad to try this hat on later. Go figure.
Dad says it’s eerie how much Riley looks like Aunt Danielle sometimes.
(This is what Dani wore to her MIT interviews.)
Well, folks, see you again next year when Riley is 4 and I go completely nuts.
