Happy 6th Birthday Superstar!

Today is the Superstar's birthday. How did 6 years fly by so quickly! I spent the day remembering that special day 6 years ago - the intense contractions, the waiting all day, the relief when the doctor said, "let's do a c-section! This kid's not coming out on his own!", the fear I felt in the operating room, the complete joy when I first saw my precious baby. Ahh...memories!

We started the morning with a bagel breakfast (yum!) and then went swimming with Grandma.

After swimming, the Superstar opened his presents from his grandparents. He got a Spiderman Wii game, Spiderman backpack, and Spiderman lunchbox! Plus a new outfit for first grade. Thank you Grandma and Zayde!
The Superstar went out to lunch to Subway with his Grandma and Zayde. He watched a lot of Transformer cartoons in the afternoon and then we went to dinner at Bob Evans. Delicious! The waitstaff brought the Superstar a balloon, special 6 year old birthday card, and an ice cream sundae! What a nice surprise!
After dinner, we had the Pirate and the Mermaid & parents and Herbie come over to our house for cake and presents.
Grandma had bought matching dresses for the Princess and the Mermaid so us Mommies decided to dress them alike:
The cake had a surprise inside. The Superstar and his Grandma planned to have a RED cake to surprise everyone. We were all surprised. It was good. The Mermaid and Princess enjoyed sharing blue Jello-O with Grandma feeding them. The Mermaid said, "good!"
All of the kids played and played. The Princess enjoyed sharing her toys with the Mermaid. The Mermaid enjoyed exploring new toys.
It was a fun day and evening for all. Thank you for joining us! Happy 6th Birthday, Superstar!

Looks like fun! What a great bday! Love the matching dresses. My sister and I do that all the time with our girls. Tall, blue eyed girland tiny little tan girl look SO cute dressed alike.
