James' dad's birthday

So now that baby James is our friend, and doesn't just blob about, there has been a change in hierarchy: no longer is David "Uncle David", he is "Baby James' Dad".  But he still gets a cake! Here we are making it with Livy

Dad was very proud of our decorating.

 And so was the birthday boy!

Too cool for school
