Cade turns SIX!

Cade also had a big birthday and turned the big six-er! He's officially using 2 hands to tell how old he is now. He had a great day, brought a special treat for everyone in his class to share and came off the bus wearing a crown and a huge smile. He picked his birthday dinner (pancakes...yes, pancakes for dinner).

Here's a little video showing his big present.


The thing he (and his jealous sister Riley) were most excited about was that it has a kickstand. Neither one of them have kickstands on their current bikes. So funny what kids pick up on.


The kids loved Brooke's panda bear cake so much, Cade asked if I would make him one too. I used red velvet cake on the inside so when you cut into him he looked like he was full of blood (the kids LOVED that).

Cade got 3 different little celebrations too. One on his actual birthday, one with the Wilsons and one when the Clarks came to visit. Cade is an awful peeker... this set of presents were from his Wilson celebration and he knew all but one of these presents below before he actually opened them. It didn't make him any less excited, he is a very happy boy and was very grateful for everything he got. But he is a little stinker.


Riley promised for weeks to Cade that she'd get him a Khun Zhu. He had gotten a track to race on from his cousins so he was SO excited when he got the toy that could "battle" Riley's Zhu Zhu pet. I love their faces here...pure joy!

I love this little boy, love his spirit. He has always been such a happy, fun-loving kid.
Love that I get to be his mom, but I do wish he wasn't growing up so fast.

Aiden got pancakes for his birthday dinner too! He LOVES sweets; I wonder where he got that from?!

But what I really wanna know is, when the heck do you have time to throw three parties and bake specialized b-day cakes?! :)

Happy Birthday, Cade!!!
