We finally made it to Zack's birthday. He has been so excited for months. It was almost unbearable for him because there were quite a few other people that he knows that had birthday before him. After everyone that went by he would say "Is my birthday next now?" When we had to say no, he would drop his bottom lip and say "Ah, shucks!!!" Finally is was next and the anticipation was almost too much for him. When we arrived home on Saturday after Thanksgiving, a package was in the mail for him from Grandma and Grandpa Hamblin. He got so excited when he read his name on it and said "It is for my birthday!!! I know it!! Can I open it?" He was once again heart broken when I told him his birthday wasn't for two days and he had to wait until then to open it. So we put it away up in the closet thinking that that would help keep his mind off of it, but it didn't. About every hour he would come and ask me if he could open his package from Grandma and Grandpa. He went to bed Sunday night very excited. In the morning, I got up to get Tyler ready for school and Zack was still sleeping. We were in the kitchen making breakfast and we here Zack come bounding in and the first thing he said (and I think he was still half asleep) was "Now I can open my package from Grandma and Grandpa." He was so excited that we opened it right then. He was very thrilled to get not only a jetplane but a transformer at that. It was very exciting.
Zack has wanted and talked about a rocketship for months now. He sure loves this one!!!
He really wanted a transformer cake but his mother has very limited creative skills. I actually had no idea how to do it. Shon found two smaller transformer guys that I tried to put on the cake, but they kept sinking in and falling over so I had to tape them on the platter. But he really loved it.
Of course Tyler had to help with the blowing out. We had sparkler candles on the cake which they thought were really cool because the kept relighting. They had fun.
