B's 8th birthday

My B is 8. My 8 lbs 3 oz baby boy - born at 7:35 in the morning after 11 hours of labor - is 8! My little boy that used to climb in bed with me in the mornings just so he could cuddle with me.

He doesn't cuddle so much now. Or maybe he wants to and I'm just too busy or too tired. Hmm.

Anyway, he's 8. And, he was recently baptized. But, that's another post for another day. His grandparents came over in the afternoon while he opened his presents - a razor scooter, a bow and arrow (with suction cups for the pointy arrow part), beef jerky (his request), lizards (not real ones, and which also came with snakes and frogs), a computer came (highly addictive - it's called "The Wizard's Pen"), a football and reese's p.b cups from his grandparents, as well as some money and other things from other family members at his baptism.

But, for now, his b-day pictures!


Mmm - jerky. And lizards, and snakes, and frogs!!

He chose a radio cake for his b-day cake

Blowing out the candles


He requested a strawberry cake with blue frosting. Yummy!

We love you B!
