Happy 7th Birthday Kelly!!

I can't believe our little boy is 7! Or at least he will be tomorrow. It seems like yesterday that we were going to the hospital to have him. Now he's a sweet, handsome, kind, talented little man and I can't wait to see what he's like in 7 more years.

We let Kelly pick where he wanted to eat his birthday dinner on Tuesday night (we had to celebrate early because of crazy schedules this week) ... he chose Mori's which is a Japanese Hibachi restaurant. He had gone there in Kindergarten on a field trip and really enjoyed it. He was fascinated by the fire and spinning kitchen instruments. They even came out and sang to him and brought him a bowl of fruit with some fancy decorations and a candle.

We made Kelly wait until his dinner was all gone to open his present, an MP3 player. He has been asking for one for months because everybody else has one. Now he can listen to "boy" music and not "big sister girl music". He was so happy!

Kelly finally is a Cub Scout

Kelly is so excited!! He has been impatiently waiting to join Cub Scouts for years. When he was 3 or 4 he wanted to be a Girl Scout like his older sisters. But we finally convinced him that was not a good idea because he was a boy not a girl. Maybe the fact that we dressed him in the cookie outfit every year to help his sisters sell Girl Scout cookies was not such a good idea...he sure did help sell a lot of cookies though.

He went to his first meeting decked out head to toe in Tiger Scout gear and looking oh-so cute! Tonight he went to his first popcorn show and sell. He was so adorable asking everyone if they wanted to buy some "pahorn". He has problems pronouncing popcorn...it's so cute. They did really well at their booth that night and he is on his way to meeting his goal.

ZZZZZ!!!
