Guppy's 30th Birthday Party
Nov. 23rd, 2009 09:07 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
Having collected everyone from the bar, Guppy leads them back through to the house, where they enter through the kitchen.
The living room furniture has been mostly moved out of the way, and that's where the most of the party has been set up. The sofa and some chairs are around the edge of the room, and there's music playing. The kitchen is a bit small so the food is being taken through into the dining room. Also a little on the small side, but enough for purpose. All of the baby gates are open on the ground floor, but not on the stairs.
Upstairs, the spare bedroom has been set aside for any little people at the party. It's a bit quieter, with baby-sized food, some toys, and a DVD of Pingu playing.

The lashing out when he's touched was what got us concerned to start with, but when we looked into it there were a lot of subtler signs that he has too."

"He doesn't like it if we move the furniture, so we're keeping him from going downstairs."
He opens the door into the back room, and peeps in. Alex is absorbed in an episode of Pingu on the television.
"Alex, Kate's come to see you."
The episode finishes, and the toddler looks around.
"Kate." he says.

"Pingu!" Alex says, pointing at another penguin toy on the other side.
