Joshuas Birthday


What a crazy month! Joshua turned 5 on the 13th and had 3 different parties. His first party was a combination party with my family. He and my Mom share the same birthday so we got together with all my family for dinner, cake, ice cream, and presents. It was a lot of fun and he was excited that he got to celebrate with Grandma. Then on his actual birthday he got to have his very first friend birthday party. He wanted a Blues Clues party and I had a blast planning it and making decorations. We had to have it at my Moms because our apartment isn't big enough to hold all the kids. There were 13 kids there all between the ages of 2 and 5 (what was I thinking?). They played games, including Blues Clues, opened presents, and had cake and ice cream. Josh made out like a bandit with all the presents! Then on the Friday we had another joint party with Christians family. His cousin Kennedy's birthday is the day before his so we got together for dinner, presents, and once again cake and ice cream (needless to say, the diet went out the window this month!). The kids had a blast playing with balloons and having a huge silly string fight!
