That means lots of cupcakes. :-)
What did he ask for? Minions!
We invited a couple boys over to the house on Saturday for an afternoon party filled with Dr. Nefario's experiments. It was filled with fun and just a little bit of mess.


Dr. Nefario also left us a Secret Exploding Experiment that needed Minions to test it: Diet Coke and Mentos! Even The Sisters got in on that one.
Next, the Minions had to recreate El Macho's volcano. More exploding fun!
After all of that experimenting, a Minion is bound to get hungry. CUPCAKES! Chayton and Kaija did these all by themselves!
With proper amounts of sugar in their bodies, the Minions were able to take off on one final activity - a potato sack race.
That evening, Big Grandma came to the house for dinner and more CUPCAKES!
It is so wonderful to be able to share these moments with here. Once Big Grandma left, the girls headed over to their friend's house for a sleep-over. It was a Chayton - Mommy - Daddy Evening. His favorite kind!
Sunday started with our traditional Daddy & Child B'day Breakfast. Courtney got Chayton to pick Panera (over IHOP) by promising him not only a bagel, but a bagel, a breakfast sandwich and a special drink (HiC). Of course Chayton picked Panera! Courtney was happy. Chayton was happy. I got a coffee. I was happy.
After breakfast, we started with the family birthday presents. First up - an aquarium! Thank you Grandma & Grandpa. Now that we had a fish tank, we needed to start getting items to fill it. Off we went to get a couple of plants and some rocks. Next weekend, we'll be able to start adding fish. He has been asking, consistently, for a gold fish since this summer. He's so excited that he gets to have more than one fish!
B'day Boy's lunch request - Octopus and Seaweed. Yum.



Courtney and I have secretly been planning to give his room a little make-over, too. And with his birthday gifts - everything has come together.

Happy Birthday to the best Minion out there!
