Grant's 9th Birthday

Our baby is 9 years old today! Where has the time gone? It seems like just yesterday that he was watching Bob the Builder and Dragon Tales. Those days have been replaced with episodes of Dirty Jobs and Survivorman. I don't care how old he gets, he'll always be my baby!

This is the first year that we haven't had a big birthday blow out! We've done everything from swim parties, to tumbling parties, and even bowling parties. This year, he asked for a trip to the Lego store and an ice cream cake. He's reserving the right to ask for a game of laser tag when the weather warms up a bit, though. I'm sure Eric will have no problem indulging his request as long as he gets to play, too! But for today, we had a simple day of cake at Grandma's house and a leisurely trip to the Lego store. (If you've never been to a Lego store, it's anything but leisurely)!
