Well, Cade's birthday turned out to be a bit anti-climactic. I was able to get home just a little earlier than normal, planning to get the kids ready to go out for dinner. (As much as I tried to deter him, he still wanted All American Diner...again.) But, when I arrived home, I found Kennedy sick on the couch with a fever of 101. It didn't look like she would be going anywhere.
So, we let Cade open his presents before dinner, so that Kennedy could watch him. She was ready for bed (or so I thought). He was one lucky boy. He got lots of Legos and cars, two of his favorite things right now! He also got some clothes (that we had brought back from family last summer--thanks!), and a basketball hoop that Dad had picked out for him.
Then, he and daddy went out to dinner to celebrate. It was the same restaurant that he wanted to go to last year, and then Eric had to go there, too. Ironically, I can't stand the place. I'm always trying to convince the rest of my family to choose a different restaurant, but they just keep going back...
On their way home, Cade got to pick out a cake at one of the local bakeries. Last year, he had a brownie at the restaurant, but this year he was adamant that he have his own cake. Who can blame the kid?! He had picked out a different one every time we'd been in a bakery for the past six months! He was very happy with his choice. And, Kennedy was able to stay awake until they got home, so she could have some, too. Happy birthday, Cade! (Thanks for being flexible and such a go-with-the-flow kind of kid!)
