Last weekend we had L's 5th birthday. He turned 5 on Friday and his school gave him a card and a Thomas the Train necklace that his teacher made. He has a bunch of teachers at his school but he has a bit of a crush on his head teacher, Jenny-Lynn. On Saturday, we had a training day so he and B spent the day with the agency staff, first going to the Children's Museum, then out to eat and then to an area school where they played in the snow. When the training was done, we went to Toys r Us where L got a free balloon and a crown. He picked out his big toy. It was a tough decision. We are a shelf stockers nightmare I'm afraid. Everytime he changed his mind, we would replace his new choice with his old choice on the shelf. He decided on a Little Einstein's rocket. It is very fancy and plays music, has interchangable part and when you press buttons it will go in a variety of patters such as a figure 8 on the floor. B has a rocket that's about a year old and although it looks about the same, does very little. After Toys r Us, we went to Texas Road House as that is what L picked. He loves to throw the peanuts on the floor and then stomp on them. He also likes that he can be as loud as he wants and doesn't get shushed as it's so loud there. Last time we went, he and B danced with the waitresses. They were a little disappointed this time that we got a waiter. They stood up and danced as you can see in the pictures. I'll try to post the video of L shaking his booty. On Sunday, we had his party. He had picked a Speed Racer party. We had the following guests: cousin Annie-4, cousin Jacob-7, cousin Griffin-8, friend Simon-3, friend Kelly-6 and friend Hunter-8. My parents and Andy's mom came too, as well as all the kids mom's. We had quite a houseful. We started with pizza, then had the scavenger hunt where he had to find his presents and the prize bags, then we had cake and ice cream, then the pinata and then opened presents. After everyone left, he and B came up with an interesting way to pop the balloons. I'll try to post the video.
