Kaleb's 9th birthday!

Saturday, December 18, 2010

Kaleb turned 9 on the 12th! It is unbelievable! We are amazed at the person he is becoming, and it is so fun to watch him grow in his interests, and mature in so many ways. He remains our kind-hearted, sometimes quiet, deep thinker. He is extremely trustworthy with his little sisters, and the ultimate friend/tormentor to his little brother. He is a wonderful companion, I love having alone time with him, listening to what he has to say....he is a smart cookie. Happy birthday, K!

We had a party for him at the skating rink last Sat., our wonderful friends Dawn and Josh even drove up from PA to be there for it! Also, several other friends from our street were there, along with a couple of Kaleb's classmates and their parents.

Shiloh loves to dance, and did so pretty much the entire time! She didn't venture out on the hard floor in her skates but she did well on the carpet!

Kaleb skated long and hard, and had a ball being a "big kid" with his school friends, and having this be all about him!

Dawn spent the majority of her time on "Emme duty" which was a wonderful thing for me, as I was able to focus on the birthday boy and party details!


McKayla and Shiloh are good friends!



WORN OUT!




Happy and tired





Gabe, as usual, is a pro at anything requiring athleticism. In the background, Heather is helping Shiloh skate!

Back at home, we opened family presents, and this was the one we'd been waiting on, it is all he's talked about for months! Kaleb now has his own skateboard (and helmet and pads)....he's a happy boy!



It was a good day!
