Happy Birthday Phoebe!

Phoebe wanted to bring donuts for her classmates and teachers to get the big day off to the right start.


She had to get measured to make it official.


She's grown almost an inch since the first day of school.


For her birthday dinner, she wanted pancakes.  But she was very specific about it - she wanted "nine pancakes, stacked on top of each other, with syrup dibbling down the sides."



Just like she pictured it in her mind.


Present time.  Her first record player.  She asked for it.


A stack of records to get started.


We'd picked out this Pete Seeger record for her before we knew that he had just died.


Of course!


The other present she asked for was a pogo stick.


Phoebe helped make the cake she wanted - a coconut layer cake.


Look at those layers!


The big NINE.
