Kevin turned 6 on the 10th of August. After Emma had her birthday party, he kept saying, "This was the best party ever!" Then he started telling me who he was going to invite to his birthday. I finally had to tell him that he wasn't going to be having a birthday party, just a birthday. He was a little disappointed at first, but when I explained that Emma had one because it was her special birthday, then I think he was feeling a little better. It was still fun for him, though, because Grandma and Grandpa Jex were here for it!
He had an Indiana Jones birthday cake. (Not homemade...Wal-Mart.) He thought it was pretty cool! Emma gave him candy, which is always a big hit. Tara gave him a Webkinz Clydesdale pony. He named him, what else, Clyde. Craig and I give the children books every year for their birthday and Christmas. This year's book was a Marvel Comics heroes mix-and-match book. He's really into superheroes right now, so this was a good choice for him. Logan gave him a Transformer. He thought that was awesome! Steven gave him a new light saber. He loves Star Wars and uses the force whenever he enters a building with automatic doors. "Yes! I used the force!" All of his other light sabers had seen better days and had been retired (thrown away) some time ago, so he was really excited to get this one. Last of all, Craig and I gave him Planet Heroes stuff. (Do you see a pattern here?) He got a DVD in the mail about a year ago introducing Planet Heroes toys from Fisher-Price. There's a hero from each planet in the solar system, and they all help each other fight the evil Black Hole. He has loved the movie, so we thought he would enjoy the toys. He got Ace from Earth, Gustus from Jupiter, and a space ship. These are super fun toys that he hasn't stopped playing with yet. They also came with a new DVD, so that was an added bonus! All in all, I think he had a wonderful birthday.

Your kids are so cute! I love checking in on your blog to see what is new for you and your family. You have a neat family.
How fun to be the youngest of a big family like yours. He doesn't even realize how many cool gifts he got. If he was the oldest or born into a smaller family he wouldn't have so many. Lucky Kid! (As you can tell I was the oldest child-I didn't recieve as many gifts) When you were saying the kind of things that he likes it reminds me so much of Raef. Raef loves all super hero things. Too funny.
Barry and I cracked up about using "the force" to open the doors. Little boys are too great.
HEY! What about big sister!?! For all of you who read these, I DID give him a gift. Way cool play-doh and fun tools to go with it. Geeze. :) :)
Reebs,
Sorry I left you out. I was only posting about the pictures. He LOVES the play-doh.
