Clayton's Birthday

It feels like we have been celebrating Clayton's birthday for an entire week! Oh yeah, that's because we have been....

Thursday he was the Birthday Boy Shining Star at preschool. He loved being the center of attention and brought cupcakes to share with his class. I would have some positively darling pictures of the event if I had remembered to put the memory card back in my camera, that is. :( Alas, we have no photographic proof. Lesson learned.

This morning Clayton woke up and opened a few gifts from us.

The Star Wars underoos were a big hit!

Is that a forced smile or what?!?!?
Another costume to add to the collection.

After a day of playing at home, a nap, and a photo session (see post above), we went to Chuck E. Cheese. CEC is heaven on earth for kids, but it is no bueno for parents. Wade and I equate Chuck E. Cheese with overpriced pizza that tastes like cardboard and paying for tons 'o tokens only to walk away with a piece of Laffy Taffy to show for our efforts. Hence, we only go to Chuck E. Cheese once a year - on March 13th. :)

Drew just chilled in his car seat taking it all in.

Ah, birthdays... it's a good thing that they only come once a year!
