Birthdays Are For Suckers

In case you didn’t read my story about going completely psycho in Costco, Blake turned three last Friday.

We started his birthday off with a trip to the park, where we met some friends from his preschool class. Then, we headed to Don Cucos for lunch.

Mainly to celebrate his birthday because it was Happy Hour.

The Mommies enjoyed some of these…

 … while the kids enjoyed hot dogs, and the promise of ice cream if they behaved.

In true Mexican restaurant style, a group of waiters brought Blake his birthday ice cream and, well… you can watch the rest.

 

Here’s that face from another angle, just in case you missed it.

 

Looks like someone’s not impressed by birthdays, singing, or sombreros.

Happy 3rd birthday, you little stinker.

  1. How can he have that look when people are singing happy birthday to him and there’s ice cream?

  2. Anna says:

    LOL – so awesome! My son would have stood up on the table and told them to stop singing and go away so at least he didn’t do that. His face is priceless -haha! Hope the rest of his birthday was happier for him :)

    This cracks me up!

    After you text that video to me Dylan is obsessed with watching it. I’m not sure if that’s good or bad ;)

  4. Jess says:

    Blake and Layla really are the perfect match.

  5. How can he not be impressed, he looks sooooo cute!

  6. Jamie says:

    Well DUH, he wants one of those big green drinks, not no stinkin’ ice-cream!

  7. Sarah says:

    I’m with Blake. I hate strangers putting a nasty hat on my head and singing “Happy Birthday” to me in front of God and everyone. I’m pretty sure he’s already plotting what he’ll do for your 50th… :)

    Was it the “real” birthday song, or the we’re going to make up something clever so we don’t have to “pay royalties to the man?”

    Clearly, he needed the green drink… it always makes me feel good. Was that the Melon Margarita, or “Green Iguana” as I am want to call it?

    Clearly they didn’t serve the ice cream in a Red Solo Cup… since that is bound to cheer anyone up…let’s have a party… (couldn’t resist)

    That was a death stare if I ever saw one. Too cute!

    Happy Hour birthday party is a great alternative to something like Chuck E. Cheese. Why didn’t I ever think of that? Love the look on his face.

      Happy Hour is WAY BETTER than Chuck E. Cheese. And? You won’t get hepatitis in the ball pit.

    L O L

    that face is priceless! I foresee this picture being front & center at many future birthday parties!!!

  13. Kierstyn S says:

    This is hilarious! His face is priceless! :)

  14. Maybe he was pissed he had to wait to eat the ice cream. ;)

    I think your son and my son could totally hang out and be grumpy together. You should have seen the look on my son’s face when I presented him with cake last year. You’d think I put a plate of crap in front of him or something!

    • Carri says:

      It’s funny because he’s not normally like that. He just HATES having his picture taken, and he wants attention on his own terms.
