What a 9-year-old Birthday Looks Like

October is quite a busy month in my house, two birthday's, Halloween, football season in full swing, new TV shows.... so busy that I realized I never even shared pictures from Lucas birthday, way back at the beginning of the month.

So I present you with... What a 9-year-old Birthday Looks Like

This is what a 9-year-old looks like

Sometimes it shocks me that I have a 9 year old, this is his last year in single digits!  Eek!

This is what the sister of a 9-year-old who has to be in on all the action looks like

This is what a one of those really good motherhood moments during the 9-year-old birthday looks like

I hope they always love each other this much.

This is what a very spoiled excited 9-year-old looks like

This is what a cake looks like that kind of breaks my heart as the 9-year-old is "too old" for a fancy fun cake and just wanted a strawberry cake with chocolate frosting and "Happy Birthday Lucas"

With some Lego candles of course

Tomorrow will be 10 Things to Smile About this Month!  I started this list after a really hard month where I knew I just needed to find something good.  You can write a list, add pictures, link back to posts you love, however you would like.  Can't wait to see your lists!

  2. He is a handsome boy! I just posted today about my son's birthday too. He turned 4--quite a difference from what a 9-year-old birthday looks like!
