6 Years Old

1st Day of School

Erik turned 6 on December 30th. We went to breakfast at McDonald's and watched a movie after lunch. It was his day, and he had a good time. We had a small family party that evening with an improvised Transformer cake. I couldn't find any Transformer cakes at a store, so we just bought a plain, white frosted cake, added our own words and put on a few of Erik's little plastic Transformer figurines. He liked it, so that's all that matters. Scott and Debbie were able to come down to visit. They gave him some Magic Tree House books, which he likes. We gave him some Wolverine tattoos, a Doodle Pro, and some small Transformers. It was his day, and he had a good time.

I can't believe he's six! It seems like not too long ago we were spending New Year's Eve in the hospital with our one day old little baby boy. Now, he's in kindergarten, learning to read and write, loves video games and has his first loose tooth. Time really does fly.

I love this little bundle of baby!


Proud daddy. Erik loved to sleep this way.
