What does the president-elect get his No. 2 for his birthday?

On Wednesday, after a weekly lunch at a transition office in Chicago, Barack Obama surprised Sen. Joe Biden -- who turns 66 today -- with a dozen cupcakes decorated with candles and teased, "You're 12 years old!"

Staff told The Associated Press that Biden laughed at his boss's joke.

"Maybe in dog years!" Biden cracked.

Obama then led the rest of the staff in song before presenting Biden with some Chicago-themed gifts: a White Sox cap, a Bears cap and a bucket of Garrett's popcorn.

Look back at unforgettable moments from this year's campaign.
