On July 23, Caden turned six! He was sooo excited. We started the day with lots of presents and balloons. We had planned on going to LegoLand, but Caden decided he wanted to wait until we could get the line-skipping tickets which were sold out. Smart boy.
Instead, we all hung out, and ate 3 different cakes. Yes, that wasn't a typo. Stellar parenting again resulted in poor planning to research how to get a kid's birthday cake in a new city. (It isn't as easy as running to Kroger here....) The first 2 were too fancy for a kid, although they were delicious! Finally we found a pre-made, loaded with preservatives, buy it off the shelf (not even refrigerated) Toy Story cake which he of course loved.
Here we are two weeks later and he still hasn't had his LegoLand trip, but it will be here soon!
It's so strange that he is six years old. It sounds so old to me. Just 6 months ago in Amsterdam, he was this little kid (far left in pic) in a play and now he is a giant six year old.
Naughty and obstinate, he constantly keeps us on our toes and tempers in check. While sometimes I am frustrated, he constantly reminds us there is literally fun in everything... even getting in trouble! We are a lucky crew.
Here's the pics from his birthday...
(I didn't manage to get an actual video of his birthday, but I did find this video that Scott made of the kids a couple of years ago when I had to leave for business. This is right after Caden and Keali played "hair-cut store".)
