Today was Bo-man's 5th birthday and he was in heaven.

He only has school on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and his birthday landed on a Thursday, so he got to take (his favorite) donuts to school yesterday and the kids sang happy birthday while he got to pass out the donuts all by himself.

This morning when he woke up he was grumpy because he said "you guys didn't get me a birthday present."  I guess he thought we would bring it up stairs when we woke him up, we all giggled.  When he went down for breakfast he lit up like a Christmas Tree.

Mom and dad bought him the Hot Wheels Beat That race track that he has been wanting for SSSOOOOO long. Brian and I spent 30 minutes trying to put the thing together, just to find out when we were done that it wouldn't turn on......UGGGGhh.  

So I took Bo back to Walmart and he decided he wanted a big Nerf gun instead. So we gotthat home and it was broke too!!!! double UGGGGhhh.  So we went back to Walmart and Bo decided he wanted to try a remote controlled 4 wheeler and he still had enough money left over to get a smaller Nerf gun. Good choices because the 4 wheeler is a hit, and the Nerf gun is way better and easier for him to control than the big gun. We also bought him some "silly string." I had no idea, but my kids had never seen silly string before and thought it was awesome. So we spend about 3 minutes teaching the kids the art of the silly string...spraying it all over the back yard, spraying grandpa with it, rolling it into a squishy ball pretending to sneeze it out of our nose etc etc etc. Fun Fun!

Bo hung out with dad for the afternoon, they watched a movie and went on a bike ride to the park while mommy and the girls headed down to the Health Department to get our H1N1 flu mist (I took Bo yesterday because he had to get the shot not the flu mist and the line was around the building, we had to wait an hour and a half)

When we got back we made Bo cupcakes and sang Happy Birthday.

Happy Happy 5th Birthday Bo-man, we love you.
