Brady Turns 7

Our baby, seven? You must be kidding, but it is true. It happened. How? I have no idea, but it happened. The time flies scenario, continues to hold true as we blink our eyes and another year passes. Brady had a great year. He continues to be the comedian in the family, continues to break out of his shy shell, slowly trying new things (roller coasters, tubing, swimming, getting friendly with dogs, Chinese food, reading, building Legos sans Mom, tying his shoes (funny enough we discovered he has never owned a pair of shoes with laces until this summer), and watching scary Harry Potter movies) He braved all day Kindergarten this year and did great in drawing and writing! He still has to work on his Pinocchio skills as we continue to find him taking the easy way out of stuff with some fibs, but hopefully we are making progress there. Bugs, it has been fun to watch you grow up this year, we look forward to another year of fun filled adventures that you are no doubt going to take us on. Happy Birthday to our main man!
 
Having a birthday on 7/11 means always a free Slurpee coming your way!
Special delivery at camp this year!
Birthday Pie .......



 
 Toys that we shopped for in our basement (shhh don't tell)
We are not that awful, some presents came courtesy of Amazon
Brady picked PF Changs as his b-day dinner but First Wok had to do with a 4 day old puppy we weren't in for a 3+ hour dinner....yup that is not a hamburger on that fork - Progress people Progress......
It sort of makes me sad that he doesn't need me to build these with him anymore, I secretly enjoyed it.
Brady had a little dude party - themed around a character of course, the  boy is still obsessed with the action figure....this year Lego Ninjago.
That's right I'm seven......
Master Brady coming at cha......
I mean why not put knives in the hands of 8 children....it should be fine.....
This guy means business.....
Per usual Brady's birthday the forecast was 1,000 degrees and 100% humidity.....Chris and I have vowed it will be our last outdoor summer birthday party.
Master siblings.....
I just thought this was cute.
Brooke spent all morning on a Spinjitzu treasure hunt, bless her heart, as it ended with her in tears as she realized that boys aren't ones for organized games .....their attention span got them through two clues, and Brooke was devastated saying "they have no idea how hard I worked to make this happen" I hated to be coy, but I couldn't resist my reply "welcome to parenthood"
This was the first clue when all eyes and ears were on instructor Brooke.
Running to clue #2.
This is where it all falls apart on her....... onto clue #3 and everyone ended up.....
Here.  Treasure hunt over.......
Happy boy to hang with his friends...

Make a wish......
I truly hope everyone of them comes true!
We love you to the moon and into outter space!
