Hey finally it’s here. It’s my birthday! Time to celebrate! And how do we do that? With birthday themed stuff. Unlike previous posts, I’m going to post in random order with my favorite birthday stuff. This post is gonna be packed with good stuff. Join me in my celebration!

I didn’t want to be there in the first place. And I’m about six years older than him so yeah. So we finally sing happy birthday and now he’s gonna blow out the candles. And he tried… He leaned over the cake to try and blow the candles out. He did it. But he also slipped on the table and fell into the cake.

And with that, time to party!
