"Cake!" he demanded louder. Chloe was getting cake and his blue eyes watched as her piece was placed on her tray and she began eating. Where was his? Oh there it was. Gunnar grinned widely as Daddy brought him cake and he didn't waste any time diving in and shoveling it into his mouth. No forks, Daddy, no thank you. He didn't pay attention to much else, not until Mommy said something to him. "Ike cake," he said with a grin, his face covered with frosting.

Once Gunnar was placated with his piece of cake, Ethan started eating his own, watching Chloe as she got more on herself than in her mouth. He couldn't help but to laugh at her enjoyment and the sheer mess of it all. "Do you like cake?" It certainly appeared that she did. He was glad that she was having a good first birthday. "Daddy has some too, see?" He picked up a bite with his fork to show her before putting it in his mouth.

Glancing over at Gunnar, he chuckled at how fast the boy was devouring his cake. "Why don't you try using your fork, Gunnar?" Though he supposed he wasn't too surprised that he didn't even bother to pick it up. Smiling at Minerva as she sat back down next to him, he reached over and squeezed her hand a moment. "Yeah, I think we really do.." He really thought they had a pretty great life together, even if some thought they were young to have two kids already, but he couldn't imagine life without them. And it was a pretty great birthday.
