Evan spent the weeks leading up to his birthday party announcing to anyone who would listen that he was NOT having any girls at his birthday party. Each time I quickly informed him that 2 of the people he was sharing his birthday with were, in fact, girls. Evan, "wellllllll, they can come." Great, I'll make sure to tell them. Of course, then, I would mention all the friends he has that are girls. As I listed each friend off, he would carefully select just that girl I listed to come. When did the boy/girl separation happen? Jeez!
Once the party started, I only saw Evan a handfull of times. I really just wanted to stay out of his way and let him do whatever his little heart desired on his birthday. I would venture to guess that 90% of his time was spent in the bouncy house. His only request for the entire party was to have an Iron Man cake and an Iron Man cake he did have!
The only mishap of the entire two hours happened when they were eating the cake. Lilly and Caroline's cakes had a decorative 3D feature pertaining to the circus that was edible. Since Evan's was Iron Man, his was just 2D, but we added some tall star candles. He saw Lilly and Caroline eating their decorative pieces. He decided to take a big bite out of his decorative pieces...but they were wax. Now it is quite funny, but then, it was pretty traumatic.
We are sooooo appreciative of great friends who came and celebrated Evan's birthday with us!
That looks like it was so much fun!!!
ReplyDeleteIt really was!! It was the first birthday party (outside of just family) that we've had for E. It was really special to see him sharing his day with his friends. :)
