Thursday Nathanael turned one! :D The big kids and I made our little cookie monster sugar cookies instead of birthday cake. If the speed he ate them and the amount of crumbs that flew are any indication, he liked them just fine. ;) We wanted to get him something to take back to Tx, so we bought him a top...the kind with a string; now we just have to find somebody that can show us how to make it go. ;) Grandma and Pa sent him a balloon ball with a cloth cover which he thinks is amazing. Glory made him a card that he is STILL wagging around. Grandma Migl and Granny B sent cards too...Thank you, everybody! Friends here took us out to eat pupusas (a "local dish" that the experts say is really from El Salvador...though it has certainly become a favorite here in Valle.) We also bought roasted corn from the roadside vendor; Nate spent the whole time we were in the restaurant AND the whole way home gnawing corn off of that cob! After we got back, Granny B skyped us - complete with a lit birthday cake. :) Grandma and Pa called to say good night, ending a VERY full, first birthday!
