Dada turned 40 today and Janie made a card for him this morning. They’ve been reading a book about construction trucks so she added lots of construction stickers inside.
Here is the final product. She wrote half of the letters of her name inside and colored in the heart very nicely.
She also drew the cake on the front. Mama helped with the frosting squiggles. She also chose to address him as “Dad” on the card today.
When he woke up, she gave him the card and he was super excited to see all the construction stickers. She said, “there’s an excavator and a cement truck!”
Janie also made a big birthday brownie for Dada with Mama’s help, of course.
For dinner, we all went out for salt and pepper crab. Uncle Jason drew some funny pictures for her.
She ate up a whole bunch of crab and steamed fish. Dada had to work hard cracking the crab for her and keeping up with her appetite.
Peanut slept for the beginning of dinner and then woke up for a feeding too. He stayed awake for the rest of the meal and the kids took a picture with Dada before heading home.

When we got home, we all sang “Happy Birthday” to Dada and ate the yummy brownie that she made.
