We had alot of fun on Jaxen's birthday. It was sort of a multiple theme day. He still loves cars and trucks but now that we give him an allowance he generally spends that on cars so Ron and I wanted to steer away from the cars and trucks theme and do other things instead. He loves toystory and got his buzz for christmas, so for his birthday we got him a woody doll. He was really excited when he opened it. He wanted to run to find his buzz so he could play with them together. We've also been playing the new Pokemon games and having alot of fun with them. Jaxen likes to watch us play the games. We all started collecting the cards and Ron and the kids have some of the action figures. Jaxen really wanted some of his own so we got him his own pack of cards and some action figures and a stuffed animal pokemon. We also got him a buzz lightyear bubble gun and some sidewalk chalk playsets and the game whack a mole. everytime he would see that in the store or on tv he would start shouting how much he wanted that game. He was thrilled when he saw it.. Kaeryn and Tristan decided they wanted to get him a gift together this year. They choose a toy story spiral race track to give him and he was so excited. His big gift this year was a sand and water table. He was over joyed when he saw this. He loves to digg around in the dirt. He has a spot in the back yard where all his dumptrucks and loaders and shovels are. He calls it his field. Now he has actual sand to use in his field. It was so fun to watch him open his gifts this year. He would start with a gasp and then say " I just love this!" He kept saying thank you daddy, thank you mama. He was having a blast. For his cake this year he decided on chocolate and strawberry. So I made my first double layer cake. So far Jaxen and Ron are the only ones I still make cakes for. Kaeryn and Tristan have been asking for Rons homade cheesecake. So I still get to decorate cakes for Jaxen and Ron. I'm no professional cake decorator at all but I have fun trying. I thought his buzz lightyear landing on an alien planet looked pretty cool and more importantly Jaxen loved it! This year he was finally able to blow out the candles on his cake without help.
It was cute, the night before i baked the cakes so they would be cooled down the next day for me to decorate. I caught Jaxen climbing up the counters to look at the cakes. I told him he couldn't have any cake yet. He told me " i'm not eating it i'm just checking the flavors." Ron and I had a good laugh at that one.
It was a fun filled day of playing, swimming, homade pizza, yummy cake, movies. It was a busy day, but we were all so happy.
Happy Happy Happy Birthday Jaxen. We all love you so much!!!!!!!!
