Birthday Cake? What's that?

Damien had his first birthday cake on Wednesday. It took him a while, and some help, to figure out what the point of cake was, besides painting with the frosting, but once he got the hang of it he was pretty pleased.

Here was the masterpiece in one piece:

He wondered what to do with it for a while:

He decided to turn it over:

He got some assistance getting started:

He inhaled it:

And then he got going:

The finished product:

And then he got a mischeivous look in his eye...

...and took off on a sugar-induced rampage that lasted until 1:00 in the morning. He ran around the house (literally ran, something he had not previously attempted) picking up and throwing toys; each time he threw one he would look me in the eye and YELL. Not words, just AAAAAAAAUGGGGH!!!

Awesome.
