six years ago this little boy made me a mama. how is he six already?! love this little boy with all my heart and love watching him grown into such a sweet and caring boy. birthday are alway so bittersweet. obviously it is fun to celebrate him but it tugs at my heart knowing another year has gone by so fast. this year for dylans birthday this year we decided to start the celebration with an a ice cream party at school the day before his actual birthday. I bought ice cream and then a bunch of whipped cream and some of dylans favorite toppings for the kids to build their own sundaes. marshmallows, m&ms and cherries for on top were must haves according to dylan.;) alaina helped me set up and mj came to join in the fun and ended helping with all the set up too. the kids loved it and a few claimed it was the best day of their life so that was cute haha. I felt bad because during set up the teachers were excited to get join in the fun and ready for some ice cream too, unfortunately we just had enough for the kids. I promised I was make up for it and bring them ice cream one day, which I finally did... 2 weeks later haha.;) we ended the night going out to dinner with my family were he was excited to have everyone sing to him.
On his birthday we did our usual birthday donut morning party, just us and then my family ended up coming over to surprise dylan with an enormous ninja turtle they have been waiting to surprise him with for months. I got the local donut store to spell out "happy birthday" which I thought would be fun. Ayden who is learning all his letters was obsessed with all the letter A's and claimed them all, along with 10 other donuts he managed to take atleast one bite out of each. we finally packed up the car around noon after a little birthday boy tantrum that escalated after he threw his ipad on the floor and broke the screen. we stayed at one of the disneyland hotels to try something different but it was pretty crowded. we were totally wishing that we had stuck with our favorite the grand californian. we met our friends inside the park and then headed to downtown disney to meet everyone for dinner. It was a fun night with everyone and despite the crazy crowds, we got to show dylan the main street electrical parade.
The next morning we had our magic morning but had no desire to go back inside the madness that was disneyland that weekend. instead we packed up and headed to a waffle breakfast per dylans request. we ran into this place called bruxies and had the best waffles and chicken. super good. then on a whim we decided to take dylan indoor skydiving. We had been talking about looking into it for a while now and it seemed like the perfect opportunity to check it out. so fun! no seriously so cool! and dylan was a natural. he totally held his form the entire time and made it look so easy. I ended up showing his teacher the next week and she asked me to email her the video and picture so she could show the class haha. he loved that and we now have a trip planned this summer to go again with his friend nathan so we are excited.
