1. The night before their birthday we sneak into their room after they are asleep and decorate the heck out of it...balloons, streamers, signs, confetti etc., so that they wake up to a party in their room on their special day.
2. For breakfast they get a Birthday Donut with a candle and we sing to them. (this we adopted from a friend, my kids love it!)
3. Then for dinner they get to pick out their favorite meal and I will make it for them. This year Wyatt picked waffles and bacon, so that's what we had. It was delicious!
4. Then this is Jeff's creation because anyone that knows me well knows that I am a stickler about kids not sleeping in my bed. I just can't sleep well with to many people in the bed. But, the kids always ask to sleep with us so Jeff decided that on their birthday they could have a sleep over with mommy and daddy. The kids love it and it makes them feel special!
5. For birthday parties, we have adopted the every other year rule. So this year was an other year. Next year he'll have a friend party. We always have a family party and this year the grandparents came over to celebrate with Wyatt and give him presents. I also let the birthday kid decide on what cake they want for their birthday party and if it's simple enough then I make it my self. This year Wyatt asked for a number 6 cake. As you can see it's pretty amateur but it tasted great!
Wyatt is a happy and funny little six year old. Right now he is into riding bikes and scooters, baseball, legos, star wars, and Indiana Jones. We love him so much and are proud to be his parents. Here are some pictures from his special day!
You can't quite read the sash but it says, "Birthday King!"
Wyatt was also able to celebrate at school with his classmates. He received a birthday crown and sticker, and was able to share some special treats that we made for the class at recess. What a fun day!!
