Getting so Big



 
Our little baby turned 7 last Friday. Oh my...it is so crazy sounding. I actually had a some difficulties with this birthday. I was not expecting it at all, but 7 just sounds like a big kid. I mean a really big kid.
 
We had a great time celebrating our little guy. I just love him so much. His constant talking and kid,s energy (x50) can be extremely tiring...but he is just the sweetest, happiest boy. I love seeing all the joy bursting from him.
 
For his birthday breakfast he requested the treats from Brave (the Disney movie). I have no idea how those came up. He has not even seen that movie in quite a while. I did my best to find something resembling the treats. I did explain how that was a Scottish treat. I think I did OK though. After school, we took a friend of his to see Big Hero 6. Colin had so much fun. It was his friends first time going to a movie. That was neat to see. The movie was so cute. Then we all went to Red Robin for dinner and ice cream sundaes.

He loved that they sang "happy birthday" to him
 
Colin got a free cupcake from the bookstore for his birthday. We have been making a tradition out of this. They get to also pick out a book. I love Colin's book choice this year: a science experiments. He says that he wants to be a scientist,  an inventor to be exact.

Colin and I have started our air hockey competition. So far it is 1-0. Colin did score most of my points for me this time, but I was pretty good when I was younger. I even got gold in the girls and silver in boys (our team had no boy to play) at church camp.

This weekend we had Colin's party. We just had a couple kids and family over. I think he had a great time celebrating his 7th year.
