Aaron turns 6!

He was very excited to wear his new shirt from Grandma. Aaron was sad when the 49ers lost in the NFC Championship game. Darn Giants!

Aaron is officially more than one hand!!! Such a handsome kid. Huge, tender heart. Always must know what is going to happen next or, "What's for breakfast? Lunch? Dinner?" Anyone who has been loving and generous enough to watch him for more that 30 minutes knows this guy can and will eat non-stop if allowed to do so. Always has to be doing something. ALWAYS telling me, "Mom,... I love you." and then he's off to the next thing.

Monday: Family friends over for ice-cream cake on his official birthday. After our traditional birthday dinner at Red Robin, of course. (Thanks Aunt Gee!)

Saturday: Birthday party with classmates from school/church.

What kid wouldn't like to decorate their own birthday cake?!?! So they all got their own. (That really means, "mommy doesn't have to".)

And... a piñata. Even though I'd say Dad did a pretty good job figuring out how to hang a piñata in mid air, Mom almost got whacked! But, then again, what else would one expect when holding the actual piñata in your hand! (Yeah, the rope had long been broken off!)

Livi has developed quite beautiful photography skills. Good job babe, I couldn't have done it without all your help.

Aaron had a great time besides the excitement of the kids freaking him out a couple times...sometimes noise get to be a little too much, especially the annoying "cha cha cha" that someone thought had to be added to spice up the birthday song. That's pretty much a no go in our house anymore. :)
