B#3 is 6!
Blessing #3 turned SIX on Friday! It's hard to believe it has already been another year. These monkeys sure do grow up quickly! 
He wanted Red Robin for his birthday dinner, so we went there Thursday (when it wouldn't be as busy!) to celebrate. As soon as we sat down, he let the waitress know we were there because it was his birthday. Before we left the restaurant that evening, she had brought him an ice cream sundae, three balloons, and the entire waitstaff to sing to him. I don't know if he realized that all that singing was for him, but he definitely enjoyed that sundae! Since he had all that ice cream, he decided he wanted to save the birthday cake for Friday night. That was okay with us- we were full!:):):) 
He had a lot of fun. He has been running around in his spy gear his Aunt J sent him, setting up his alarm system (so he'll know if you get near his stuff), writing invisible messages, and using his special light to read the invisible messages. 
The spy gear tool belt is especially cute when he's got on his cowboy hat and new birthday cowboy boots. 
I snuck around and bought the boots in secret when he wasn't around. He had no idea they were coming. I saw them at WalMart for $17, looked around at other places to see what I could see elsewhere, and ended up going back to WalMart to buy them. I got them a few sizes too big so he could get lots of use out of them.
As we headed out the door for school yesterday, I told him he could wear his pants legs over his boots if he didn't want to be working so hard tucking the pants into the boots. That was out of the question. "But I want to see the designs on my boots!"
He has been busy drawing pictures and writing in his journal. He let me know that he was starting a birthday club, and every one in the family was in his club. I looked at the page he was working on, and above his name it said he was "Club Dirctr."
For months, he has been telling me that he wanted a house cake. He even drew me a picture with labels.
So, a house "with yellow paint and blue shingles" we had-- with six candles making the chimney... and green-tinted coconut for the lawn.

Here is a video of the birthday boy just after opening his present...
As always, before viewing, turn off the music in the sidebar and turn up the volume for the video-- I've put it to an appropriate song!
