After a busy "Birthday Saturday", Max was thrilled to open up presents from Grandma Kate and Grandpa J while face-timing with Grandma last night.  Today, he had pancakes for breakfast and then it was time for swimming lessons (which he LOVES).  After swimming, daddy took Max and Ryan to the Renton airport to look at planes and watch them take off.  Then we had cake and presents.

Max helped decorate his own cake.  He built the LEGO figures and put them on.

He went on a birthday present hunt!

 

Thank you Aunt Becky!

 

Legos are so expensive but these two awesome sets were bought last year from a friend who was moving!  Score!

 

He has been wanting an airplane shirt so badly.  All of his other airplane shirts are now too small!

 

Thank you Grandma Pearl and Grandpa Dan!

 

After lunch, presents and saying good-bye to daddy, we met up with some friends for a bike ride.  We sang to Max and passed out cupcakes.  We went 3 miles today.  It took some mom teamwork and scooting the younger kids around (would you like to try a scooter?  would you like a ride in the stroller?  do you want to try the bike now?) but it was fun.  The kids were tired (and so were we) :)  Max was excited to try his new scooter.

Now the boys are happily playing Legos and will also get some Wii time since it's a special day.  I heard this from the other room, "best birthday, ever!"  Phew!
