Jayden's Basketball Season at the YMCA

Jake Turns 9... Our Family Celebration

Jake's birthday was on a Friday this year. We had "Afternoon of Art" at school (an annual event) and I requested to have Jake in my classsroom so I could spend as much time on his birthday with him as possible. We made clay sculptures- which to this day are scattered all over my classroom! After school we headed to Red Robin for dinner (his choice) and to do a little shopping (Target and Walmart for a small cake). Also, Jonathan decided out of the blue to get his haircut so I rushed him to Great Clips before he changed his mind. He didn't want it cut as short as I wanted, but you have to choose your battles ya know!!! Then we continued the celebration at home with presents and a SpongeBob cake. His favorite gifts were probably Legos and a popcorn making machine. Happy Birthday Jakey!!!

Jake's 9th Birthday Party

Jake turned 9 years old on February 5th. Hard to believe! He had his party at the Country Club pool. The boys were pretty wild, but luckily they could be loud and rowdy in the pool without bothering anyone! After swimming for and hour and a half, we headed up to the loft area for cake and presents. His favorite gift was an airsoft gun from Tyson. Jonathan brought his friend Luke, and Jayden enjoyed swimming too! We joined the club for a trial 2-month membership, so we'll be doing lots of swimming in the months to come!
