Alex's first birthday

Laura was invited to Leila's little brother's birthday party today.

Beautiful cake.
The kids went outside to play for a little bit.
Laura and I had lunch and then birthday cake at the party.  Then we went to Ikea to buy a couple of lamps for Laura's room and she especially wanted to play in their playroom so much so that she didn't really care what kind of lamps we bought for her room.  Sigh.  

Anyway, it was a good day.
