Peeper's Birthday, Parts the Fourth, Fifth and Sixth

Of course, this morning, we had to stick with our tradition of birthday cake (or some facsimile) for breakfast on your birthday, so we let Peeper choose a leftover cupcake (she went with Dorothy) and lit some candles and did a little singing.

Then we got ourselves dressed and headed downtown for Trick or Treat on Main Street (more on that in a moment), where we ran into a million friends, including DoulaK! I had just called her out on Facebook to thank her for all her support during and after Peeper's birth, and then there she was, with most of her crew!

I reminded her that it's Peeper's birthday, gave her a big thank you hug, and she, her mom, her three girls and her two-and-a-half year old son sang Happy Birthday to Peeper, right there on the sidewalk!

From there, we headed over to Red Robin, to use Peeper's birthday coupon. Of course, there was ice cream and more singing.

After lunch, Shrike headed to work, and Peeper and I went to Target to pick up a birthday gift for H (party for her tomorrow) and some provisions for the very likely possibility that we may be without electricity for a while in the next few days.

I also got a car charger that should work for both phones and the iPad, so I think we'll be okay. And able to blog.
