Logan's Birthday

Logan's Birthday was last week. September 7 in fact. He had such a great weekend. We went to dinner with Kori & Brad and their kids (Jacob's birthday was August 30th and Sadie's Birthday is September 8th) and My mom and Max for a triple birthday celebration. The Bunderson family gave Logan a blue hockey stick, a chore chart and a CD.

Than Saturday night My mom and Max came and stayed at our house. We went to dinner again and ended the night with Birthday cake and ice cream. I will tell you Wal-mart rocks the cake department. They had a HOCKEY cake. Logan flipped!

My mom and max let him open his present from them before bed (so he wouldn't be toy overloaded in the morning). They gave him all the Scooby-doo action figures and the Mystery Machine van that they all fit in. He loved it!

The next morning he woke up to a room full of balloons (I put them there after he falls a sleep. If you ask him when is your birthday he will say "when there are balloons in my room".) I video taped this but forgot to take photos. He and Aubrey were in kid freak out mode pulling all the strings down then watching them go back up and hit the ceiling.

It was such a great day we took his presents out on the lawn to open them. Scott had just gotten back from NY and bought him a NY Jets uniform (Pants, shirt, helmet) and football. He has wanted a football helmet for a while and was so happy with it and so cloths that he didn't care about. He also asked for moonsand and so Aubrey gave him that along with an etch-a-sketch.


We took him to breakfast at IHOP where they sang him Happy birthday and he hid under the table. When we got home our neighbors John and Laura stopped by and brought him a present. He was so happy to get a nerf gun with darts and a license plate for his bike that had his name on it. He kept naming off all his presents saying he got everything he wanted. So proud that his wish came true.

Then later that day after lunch and naps we went to the State Fair. Logan loved the goats, rides and games. We all had fun.




After all this he started crying. When we asked what was the matter he said (through tears) "If I go to sleep it won't be my birthday any more and it has just been a great day and I want my birthday to be tomorrow to". Well he got that wish also, because my BFF Barbra stopped by the next day with a present (Scooby-doo and Tom & Jerry movies). Spoiled rotten Kid!!!

Isn't it amazing how you think your house cannot fit more toys and all of a sudden you have another birthday. Your kids are so blessed to have Max and your mother as their grandparents. It is awesome to see the interaction they have with them. Your parents rock for being such a part of those kids lifes!! Glad to see a new post and you totally gave me a fun idea for birthdays from now on! I think the balloon idea is great!
