We had our first prenatal visit today, and we saw the baby! This was because I'd had a little pain on the left side of my abdomen a few days ago (probably due to pushing Robin on his new bike, which bends me over sideways) but it was enough to make easy-to-worry me think about an ectopic pregnancy--so they did a quick ultrasound to check the baby's viability. And there it was! Just one (hooray!) and it's right where it should be. We were able to pick out the head, some limb buds, and watch the heart beat (180bpm.) It's still too small to hear the heart, but it was neat to see it while it was so small! Oh yes, and it's due June 10th.
But on to the main point of this post: Robin's birthday!
The theme was Planes, Trains, and Automobiles. Check out
here to see the invitations.
We gave Robin his train table the night before the party because we wanted to give him the chance to claim it as his own before having to share. It was definitely a hit. He threw a huge fit when we told him it was time for bed, and we've spent a good deal of time in the basement playing with it since then.

The party favors, which contained a stuffed monkey, a matchbox car, two foam airplanes, and a frisbee.

The train cake. This took a long time to put together, but we were pleased with the result. I'd been potentially expecting more guests, so we were eating cake for dessert for more than a week!

Happy Birthday, little man! How did two years go by so fast?
