That’s right, boys and girls, the Nameberry Birthday Bus is headed your way to celebrate the first birthday of [name]Dashiell[/name] [name]David[/name] [name]Rowe[/name] B., the baby boy of Nameberry’s own [name]Lyndsay[/name]! :slight_smile: [name]Happy[/name] Birthday, [name]Dash[/name]! In honor of [name]Dashiell[/name]'s special day, there’s cake (yellow cake decorated with an [name]Alvin[/name] and the Chimpmunks theme) and ice cream (chocolate, vanilla, and rocky road) for everyone. I also have balloons (they’re shiny and feature Big [name]Bird[/name] and [name]Elmo[/name]), but please limit yourself to one so there’s enough to go around.

[name]Dashiell[/name], for your first birthday, I’m giving you: An Easy Bake Oven (as an official Nameberry [name]Baby[/name], you must have one, but your mommy will save it for you until you’re older), a red ball, one Tickle Me [name]Elmo[/name] doll, an egg timer (I know you’ve had your eye on one of these for a while now…), a vintage [name]Teddy[/name] Ruxpin, lunch with the McDonaldland character of your choice (I’d avoid Grimace, though, because he seems shady), 6 pieces of yarn (blue, green, yellow, orange, purple, and white), a Laugh and Learn Farm, an [name]Oprah[/name] Winfrey magnet, a membership to The Jelly of the Month Club, a Giddyup and Go Horsie, a bowl of chicken noodle soup, an Up & Down Coaster, one warm chocolate chip cookie, a [name]Little[/name] Tikes [name]Drum[/name] [name]Set[/name], three paper plates, and a pair of [name]Argyle[/name] socks.

It’s time for your birthday song now:

[name]Happy[/name] Birthday to you, [name]Happy[/name] Birthday to you. [name]Happy[/name] Birthday, dear [name]Dashiell[/name], [name]Happy[/name] Birthday to you…And many more!!!

It’s time for you to blow out your candle and make a wish:

I wish you a wonderful day and a fantastic year, [name]Dash[/name]! :slight_smile:

Oh my goodness! What a fabulous birthday part you though, [name]Jill[/name]! I don’t know where to begin! [name]Dash[/name] loves his [name]Alvin[/name] and the Chipmunks cake, he doesn’t even want to eat it so that he can look at it longer! But, hmm, once convinced to give it a while, he devours the whole thing!

He loves all his presents so much, he is overwhelmed! He will play with the red ball the most, but will never let go of the [name]Oprah[/name] magnet! He will buzz the egg time 50,000 times in a row until it drives his mommy crazy, at which point he’ll give it to me, so that I can make him some eggs. He is very excited to have lunch with the Hamburgler!

He plans to enjoy a different jelly on his morning crepe every month, the gift that never stops giving! He’ll eat them on his paper plates, and then recycle the plates by gluing the yarn onto them and hanging them on the wall. Then he’ll play drums for a while, put on his argyle socks and read some stories with [name]Teddy[/name] Ruxpin while he eats his warm chocolate chip cookie. [name]Ah[/name], what a life! He’ll take a nap and when he wakes up, [name]Elmo[/name] will watch him ride his horsie and up and down coaster. Then the two of them will laugh along with his farm. It’s chicken soup for dinner, and mommy will make a dessert with his Easy Bake Oven (she always wanted to try one of those!)

[name]Dash[/name] thanks you so very much for the birthday wishes (and presents and party and cake!). And his mom thanks you, too! From the bottom of my heart!

(Easy Bake Ovens are the best, so have fun!) :slight_smile:

Thank you so, so much everyone! [name]Dash[/name] loves all of his great new international toys! What a lucky boy!

I had a dream last night that one of you gave me a machine where you put ice and sugar and something else in it, and press down, and it makes whatever you want, so I used it to make all the things you all wrote. It was so awesome, and I wish I could do it in real life, haha!

You are all so sweet. I hope someday there is a nameberry convention, because I think this is the best online community there is!

Oh, [name]Dash[/name], [name]Happy[/name] Birthday, big guy!

For your special day, I present you with a chocolate lab umbrella, a red radio flyer wagon, a baby tuxedo (only you could pull this one off), a magnifying glass, a goldfish - his name is [name]Ted[/name] - and fishbowl, and a baby-sized pogo stick. Enjoy, Mr. [name]Dashiell[/name]!
