What a big day yesterday! We had a great time all together. Erik woke up and he couldn't believe the table had presents on it and donuts!! How exciting!! Sometime soon we will start waking the birthday person up....singing and with donuts and presents, but Erik is our early riser and if we had to wake the girls up first it wouldn't be pretty!! (Well, Annika would be fine, its Alaina that would be a bear!) So, we had some time with E before the girls got up. :) He got a new Disney Cars Garage.....its so big! I can even play in it! And, I know I've never made it on my own blog site (other than the pic yesterday from 3 years ago!), so here I am courtesy of Alaina.
The kids helped me make Erik's cake on Friday night. Its suppose to be a race track....the green is the grass.....it turned out a little limey! Oh was it fun to go find cars to put on it. So, it does look more like a "Sunday Drive" than a racetrack! They had fun, though. And, one side only caved in one time! I was expecting more of a disaster.
Erik went to basketball at 10:30, so after that we had our "lunch" party and cake. He requested Macaroni and Cheese, so that was an easy lunch to prepare! We even offered to get him a Happy Meal from McDonalds, but nope!
We played in the afternoon for a while and then went to Toys R Us so E could spend some birthday money. We were there for an hour and a half! I meant to bring my camera, but forgot it at home. He picked out an addition to his Geo Set track....thanks Nana Bev! All day today we tried to find his original set.....its nowhere! Its in a big rubbermaid bin....it shouldn't be hard to find! But, they still played and played with this all day today. After that we went to Red Robin so the waitstaff could sing to him like they did to Alaina. That was just great. :) Then we came home and played some more. The kids tried to sleep in the big garage (we moved it to the "bouncy bedroom" but the girls ended up back in their beds. E made it though.
It was a really fun birthday! Erik said he wishes it could be his birthday everyday. :)
