Ethan Turns 6

Ethan turned six in mid May - unbelievable!  He did a several day birthday celebration - a family birthday party with grandparents, a friend birthday party, and then his actual birthday.  He does not mind this - especially when it means three sets of presents to open!  His theme this year was Super Mario Brothers, one of his favorite Nintendo DS games.

 

Ethan has requested a grapefruit cake for the past two years now - it is definitely his favorite cake!

Ethan once again had his birthday party at Chuck E Cheese's.  He loves collecting the tickets and getting the prizes  Here he is getting his birthday crown from Chuck E.

Even though his theme was Super Mario Brothers, he picked a Green Lantern cake for his friend party.  I guess he had to mix in some super heroes in some way!

Ethan never shies away from being the center of attention!

Another reason that Ethan loves Chuck E Cheese - the ticket blaster!

My six year old "Big Man".  

And after all of the parties, his birthday finally arrives.  He picked a birthday donut for his breakfast.  Ethan also managed to open his presents before going to school - even though he really thought that he would be allowed to miss school on his birthday!

And Ethan requested Texas Roadhouse for his birthday meal since he loves A1 sauce and he loves their peanuts.  Yes, those are the two reasons he picked this restaurant.  However, after he learned that the waiters sing Happy Birthday and have you sit on a saddle, he might just pick this place again next year, too!
