Solomon’s Seventh Birthday

Aaaaand back to Wednesday! Hahaha! You guys see what I mean, right? It was SUCH a full day! Event number three was Solly’s bday! Thanks to Laela’s haircut, things went late, but it was still a riot! 

Our main birthday event is that our birthday kid gets to choose all of their food for that day. Often its on a weekend, but Solly’s day fell on a Wednesday, and he simply could NOT wait for the weekend! We had Eggo waffles out of the freezer for bfast, which was a definite treat! I let him be a bit more choosy with his lunch, though it was still out of our usual stuff. He was happy with it 🙂 His highest priority was having grandmas homemade pizza for supper! So while I was off galavanting with Laela in Saskatoon, my mom babysat, all the while making pizza with Sol 💜 Thank you, mom! I’m sorry I wasn’t there to take pictures!

We had homemade pizza, jello, and chips for supper. It was delicious. Supper was done after the point where bedtime has usually already begun! Ack! But the birthday had to go on! So our came the cake!! Ice cream cake, as Solly had requested, and Brady had ordered.

The kids were like kittens, hahaha! Fully fixed on what was about to happen!! 

We sang, and he blew out the six candles I put in the cake, because apparently even my subconscious can’t wrap its head around Sol being seven. 

He wasn’t put off. 

Present time was next, and I don’t I think I’ve ever seen Solomon so hyper. He was just spinning! Panting like a dog, ripping at stuff, stoked beyond belief.

He got lego and an Avengers balance board, to name just a couple of his gifts.

He was super happy with what he got, cards and gifts alike! 

The day went very long and everyone was LOUD and JAZZY and WILD until the breakdowns began, lol! And boy, did they ever!! Wavy missed bedtime because she started crying and just absolutely could not stop. Everyone else made it to prayer time and thanked Jesus for all the fun they had that day. It really was a gooder. 

It was SO fun to celebrate our dear Solomon Brady. We love you, Solly!!!
