More Birthday Fun

I've been sitting on these two pictures since sometime Sunday; they were taken at Thing 1's first birthday party, the previous night at my mother's house.

The first photo shows myself (sporting a very severe haircut from that very morning) and Thing 1 demonstrating the ancient art of the nerdfight.

And then the second one shows Thing 1 passing on this wisdom to his younger brother, Thing 2.

Of such events are memories made.

(By the way, my usually too-hot-to-keep-his-shirt-on older son is wearing a hoodie in these pictures because, as he says, it makes him "look cool." Junior High is looming large ahead of us...)
