Gaby's Big 6th Birthday

I finally located the pictures that were downloaded from my camera.

We celebrated Gabriel's birthday on the 2nd.  This year it was pretty easy to plan the party because he did it all, from the invitations to the Green Lantern cake.  We bowled, played bean bag toss, and had a pinata.  In between planned games, the boys "partied" downstairs to loud music and played with toys in their room.

Nana came from Tennessee as well.  His actual birthday fell during the week, so we had our first birthday cake that night.

We had a couple friends over on the day of his party.  We ended up with a huge cake that was made by mistake.  Instead of blue teeth, this year we ended up with green teeth (Gaby's favorite color). 

Gaby's classmate marveled, "Gaby, you don't act like this at school.  You're crazy!"  We were pleasantly pleased, yet puzzled, as to why he doesn't act this usual way at school. Gaby said, "Because at school I'm bored and I just want to stay home."

We encouraged Gaby to have the party at the skating rink, but he was more excited about having friends over.  I think this was the first time he's had a party at home, and he planned it well. 

This year we all got him Legos for his birthday.  We have about a gazillion sets in his room and he enjoys building things with them. 

Gaby baby, please don't grow up too fast my cuddly sweetheart.
