Oscar Stew

The beautiful streamers and balloons that graced the sleeping chambers of the Zebra were quite a sight to behold. Unfortunately, the timing was off. Don’t get me wrong, the decorations were up for Rowan’s big 3rd birthday, but does she look like she’s ready to party? cough, cough…

Got a nasty cough & cold Roastie? That’s too bad. What is that I see peeking out from under your eye?

Ouchy, nice shiner!  She earned that badge of courage a few days before in a heated battle with a bathtub fixture.

It was apparent that a big fancy cake and presents were the last thing on her mind. That’s ok, we can defer the festivities for another day. But a cupcake is the least we can do while you’re down in the dumps. Feel better soon ok?!

Ahh, there’s my Ro-diggity! It’s only been a couple of days and she’s feeling brand new. That feeling can’t help but be intensified by the creation right in front of her! Keep an eye on Daddy! He might swipe a lick of frosting! Hey, it looks like you’re the one doing the swiping!

The real point of keeping Rowan involved with the cake is that the elements of surprise are being taken care of upstairs. Make sure you use up all of that crusty old Christmas wrapping paper! We don’t want any snow-related holiday reminders sitting around the house in June! 

What’s for lunch? Sugar-baked Zebra head. Yum!

Happy turd birthday Rowan! Turd? Yeah, don’t be a turd; blow those candles out and let’s eat! 

How’s that zebra head taste? A little gamey?

Well, it doesn’t seem to bother this wild animal…

She must have heard that her presents were ready, because now she’s just stuffing it down the hatch. Whoa cute-striped-pony, whoa!

Oooh and you covered your mouth! How lady-like!

The shades were a much needed replacement for her old broken ones. Meanwhile, Rowan’s stable of hoofed animals seems to have no limit. She’s got 6 different forms of zebra…and now she’s breaking into horses?! 

I wonder if Rowan will work with animals when she’s older. She seems to love all creatures…with the exception of bugs. She might be tough, rough, and full of fire, but she’s a girly girl at heart.

Remember when I said rough? That wild appetite cannot be tamed!

Rowan have you put on some weight, or is that just a Zebra hiding under your shirt? Ha! Looking good Roastie!
