Super Six Year Old

Jacob turned six years old on November 22nd. He really wanted to have a birthday party with friends, but due to the move and Thanksgiving only 4 days later, he was a really sweet sport in settling for a family birthday party. He said, "It's okay, Mom. I'm the first one to have a birthday in our new house and that's pretty cool!" For his birthday dinner, he chose to have sushi (I know, only my crazy 6-year-old would choose that) so we got that on Saturday night and then ate his favorite meal of lasagna on his Sunday birthday. He loved the Transformers cake we ordered and enjoyed opening some spy gear presents--a utitlity belt with a laser tripwire, an invisible ink pen, and a disc shooter gun, and some night-vision goggles. He also got the Toy Story Mania Wii game and some baseball slippers. He was pretty excited about his spy gear and as I entered his room to tuck him in at bedtime, I walked into the laser tripwire and the alarm went off. He started laughing his head off because I walked into his trap. Then he gave me a big hug, thanked me for the "best birthday ever" and kissed me good night.
