Since we haven't made arrangements to celebrate Dominic's birthday with the whole crew until August 10th (along with Joshua), we decided to take a trip to the fire station to have a birthday lunch with Jim. He is working at Lake Nacimiento for the next week or so. Dominic thoroughly enjoyed his cake and ice cream, and tore into his presents like a champ. He was excited to find the new Leap Frog Tag system. Needless to say, it took a little bit of work from mommy to get it running. Unfortunately, in order to use the books, the internet is involved.....and with my dinosaur of a home computer, I had to boot up my laptop from work to complete the task.
Both Joshua and Dominic enjoyed popping the air filled water balloons that Jim found down at the local market (he swears that's all they had) and each got their fill of colored frosting balloons from the cake. Dominic was proud to show off his purple mouth and teeth!
Upon returning home, Dominic opted for a 2 hour nap, and Joshua and I played a few games. Joshua has really taken to the game playing thing, only he hates to lose.
