Yesterday after church we had Quincy's birthday party.
Because Quincy (especially his hair) reminds us of Mercer Mayer's
little critter, that was the theme for his party.
He didn't want to have anything
to do with his Critter cake.
So we gave him a break and made a little critter craft.
Then we played some games
and sang some little critter songs.
Then he got to open his gifts.
He had fun playing with them.
We're so grateful to everyone
who came to celebrate with us!
Later that night, after everyone else had left,
we tried giving him the cake again.
As soon as he would see it, he would start to cry.
Lance tried to distract him.
But as soon as he'd see
that critter cake, he'd cry again.
It was quite sad.
As soon as we'd take the cake away,
he'd be back to normal.
So today we tried just cutting him a piece of the cake
so it didn't look like the critter and he devoured it
with a big smile on his face. So yes, the cake
I made terrified my poor little son. Pretty funny, huh?!
I'm glad he's already gotten over it. :)
Happy Birthday Little Quincy Critter!
We love you so much!
