h turns 6

H turned 6 this week. He was very excited about this age - he has been asking all year why all his classmates are 6 already and he was still 5. Since we did some celebrating in AZ we had just a small party at home with the family. I have to say that made me happy - I didn't feel up to a friend party this year.
H got lots of cool gifts. While in AZ he got gifts from family members. This included money, a gift card (which is also for C) to get a pool for the summer, coloring books, a cool toy construction machine, walkie-talkies (see I do know what they are), and a super pool party. At home H got a rifle (well actually a rifle that his dad will teach him to shoot with, but it isn't his really), a cool spiderman/batman cape that mom made (turned out pretty cool huh, even if it did take several hours - I found the pattern online for FREE), rainboots (he has been begging for these, and they are useful here), new ScoobyDoo underwear (yes I know I am embarassing), Froot Loops, pop tarts, darts for his nerf gun, etc. C even wrapped a gift for him - yes it was a play cell phone he already owned, but he thought it was funny and nice of her. When he was asked what he liked best he told Uncle David "the Froot Loops". Good to know that all we have to do is buy junk food to please this kid.

Side 1 - Spiderman - I realize he doesn't actually wear a cape, but H loves him best.

Side 2 - batman, notice the rainboots.
For dinner we had a repeat of the AZ party - Pizza, and same with dessert - key lime pie. Here is the big boy blowing out candles. He didn't even wait until we were done singing. He also took cupcakes to school and went out on a dad date after school. He had a super day!

I have noticed one difference as he ages: he just gets goofier! Check out this pose - nice H!
