Creed's big special day came and went. He got the items he wanted, a drone, a new knife I got him a tie and something else? But he was very happy to see his Ferrari poster I surprised him with. He's been wanting pics of sweet sports cars in his room. And then we kinda forgot while his b-day rolled around and he started asking for things (other things) so it was perfect. He also hung his calendar car pictures all around in his room. He was genuinely happy. In fact that night after he went to bed he came back up with tears and wanted to thank mom and dad for such a nice b-day and he felt so blessed and happy to get all he wanted. What a sweet heart! He got his favorite Subway sandwiches for dinner and Greg's ice cream shake "Heaven" for his treat. My mom and Amy came out to celebrate with us. And that day at school I brought him some sushi for lunch. He loved his whole day and it showed.
His friend b-day party was a few days later on Friday. We'd planned on doing 12 year old parties for our boys, like with Jax, but with this being his last year in elementary school (the schools changed the grade reconfiguration) I felt like it's better to have a fun one while they are still young enough and have the class and close friends enough to invite lots of friends. He had just a handful of girls come and he was so polite and nice to everyone and was sweet when opening all his presents. His friends hooked him up I tell ya!
Creed wanted the same joust blow up that we got for Jax's party last year, and the whole party to be the same. So we brought over the Xbox for Just Dance had pizza and cake and basketball. But they spent most of their time playing Infection - tag running around the church. Geesh, who knew. I didn't have to pay the money or spend all the time doing the Xbox and blow up joust since all they wanted to do was a tag game. It did get used a little and I don't think anyone really did Just Dance or eat much pizza, but their faces were red, smiles were big, and lots of fun was had.
We had to find and gather them to do cake and ice cream. Creed was so tired (from all the tag running) he couldn't blow out his candles. Ha! Several tries and a few candles at a time, taking a breather, and finally Bodie had to help him finish it off.
Here's the whole fun group. (2 friends weren't able to make it) Wahoo for parties! Almost a deja vu from Jax's party last year. :)
This boy I tell ya, he's a charmer. He's smart, he's funny, he loves to cuddle, he is kind to friends, and his little brothers sure love him. He can have a temper, and can be mean to his brothers, but they still love him of course. He was a good kid to put up with Jax when they were little. In the picture's it's his blessing day (look at his hair?!) then he's 1, and 3 - with a black eye. He was so cute, gosh I miss little Creed. Now I get to have big Creed and he is great too. He's good at piano, will do anything to play video games, loves seafood and sushi and anything chocolate. He'll eat cereal 3 times a day if we let him, I feel I've repeated the same likes as last year, but he likes what he likes. He takes time for the pet birds, Jax never does. He loves his room. Loves his own space and the way he's arranged his things. His room is one of the cleanest in the house. Now how do we get him to clean the bathroom?
What a fun kid to have around!
