glad the b-day was good.

 

I absolutely loved this post, Alex. I sense what a real joy you get from parenting. And I love the idea of the kids scooping up their cake with the princesses.

I have a favorite memory from the N.E. Aquarium, too. When I was in grad school in Boston, my DH (who was then my BF) took a friend and I there soon after I had arrived. It was my first big "evening out" in Boston. My friend was from Japan and it was her first big evening out, too. So... as we were discussing the fish, the discussion turned to sushi, and we ended up having a wonderful sushi dinner, with everything chosen by my friend. It was great fun, if a little weird (having just seen them swimming and all).

 

I love this post too. Especially the image of the boys scooping up cake with princess skirts.

 

Happy Birthday! My daughter had the same cake for her birthday, and she still plays with those princesses.

 

I am cracking up at them eating their cake from the princesses' skirts! I am sure there is a dirty joke in there somewhere but I will refrain.

 

what a good sport you are! Happy birthday!!!

 

And now I feel compelled to have a princess cake for my birthday in a month or two, when I will turn *gasp* 42 and become officially a decade older than you!
Will you come for my party?

 

What a great day and the jelly fish exhibit sounds fantastic. We have nothing like an aquarium here so that sounds like a great thing to be able to do regularly.

The cake story is priceless. Keep this story for a great one to tell at their weddings!

:-)

 

at is the most hilarious 32nd birthday cake ever. I wish I had been there to eat it with you. Glad you had a wonderful, jellyfish and Disney princess filled birthday!

 

we went to the NE Aquarium this past summer on a trip to Red Sox land. I must say the penguins were the highlight of the aquarium for me.

Last years birthday cake for me was hello kitty.

Glad you had a nice birthday :)
