Mr Snuffles' Adventures in Gilbertlandia

First Birthday!

Although you wouldn’t know it from the deathly silence here on Gilly’s blog, he did manage to turn one year old! Yay Gilly! His birthday fell during a bit of a weird time here in Gilbertlandia, as his dad was suffering from that fun tropical disease dengue fever! We still managed to pull together the birthday essentials for the young man. He opened presents in the morning, then had cake time in the afternoon. Gilly’s favorite color at the moment is purple, so he had purple icing and a purple candle on his apple spice cake, with vanilla ice cream on the side. After he dug into his cake, he got to enjoy a video conference with his Gramps, Nana and Aunt Yvette in Australia. Then we got to sort out how to get all the cake and ice cream off of him, before bed time. Photos of the birthday related fun are now up in his gallery. Enjoy!
