Actual birthday boy not pictured. It was a low-key but lovely celebration, and halfway through it we realized it was Oliver's first birthday spent in New York. We were in Germany last year, trapped in Peru the year before, and camping in Canada the year before that. This year's simple gifts, dinner at Fornino, handmade card and homemade cheesecake were technically no match for meeting a brand-new baby (last year), dipping our feet in Lima's Pacific (two years ago), and canoeing to an island campsite (three years ago)... but it felt every bit as fun. Hm. Wonder what it is that made a relatively mundane birthday so good...
