Whenever I post in the evening the crazy computer dates my post with the next day’s date. I have no clue why it does that or how to correct it! So even though this post will have tomorrow’s date of Dec. 1st, I actually posted it Nov. 30th. I said all that just to clarify that I am posting this on Spiderman’s actual birthday, just for future reference.
Anyway, we had a great time today celebrating his birthday. Our son, daughter-in-love, Spiderman, Ladybug, Drama Queen, and I went to Chuck E. Cheese’s and had lunch and played games. We had a blast! Afterward we went to the mall and had their picture taken with Santa. Santa was on his lunch break when we got there and we had to wait around for an hour, so as you can imagine, Ladybug (she’s only a year old) was tired and didn’t really want to have her picture taken. But we persevered and got a great picture anyway. She’s crying in the picture, because she was tired not scared, but it’s adorable anyway. Spiderman didn’t want to sit in Santa’s lap so he stood beside him for the picture. He told Santa what he wanted for Christmas, and was very happy with the chocolate treat Santa gave him after the picture. We congratulated him for being so brave.
I convinced Drama Queen to have her picture made too. Although she’s eleven and thinks she’s too old, she did it anyway and it came out beautifully. I’m sure this is the last year I’ll be able to convince her to do it, so this one will be extra special. She’s growing up so fast!
It was so much fun being able to celebrate Spiderman’s birthday with him today. He had a great time, but was tuckered out at the end of the day. Come to think of it, so am I. Goodnight!
