Last Monday was Marcus's birthday. This was a year that we (I) waited until last minute to get the boy his birthday presents. This was also the year, that, one by one, gift ideas I had for Marcus got purchased for him before his birthday by chance. And, Andy was gone for work, so that made shopping for Marcus a little more challenging. There was a rush order placed to Amazon (my favorite place to shop) and a birthday-morning-on-the-way-home-from-work stop for a couple things, too. All in all, I think Marcus really liked his presents and had a fun day.
Andy hid Marcus's presents around the house and gave Marcus riddles to solve to find the gifts. Andy also included a couple fake gifts for fun.

A cell phone case. oh, Marcus knew he was probably getting a phone. It was the one thing he kept asking for. I even took him to the store to play with a couple so I would know what he liked. Then, I came back the next day to get the phone without him.
He was wanting a magic eight ball.
The desired phone.

The boys all liked the riddle hunt for presents. I have a feeling that Ewan and Cale will be expecting the same game for their birthdays.
Kinley was happy playing with her toys.
Kella had to show me her princess girls.
A Wii game.
The magic eight ball was a big hit.
Cake time. Marcus asked for a strawberry cake and strawberry frosting. Andy did a great job making the cake and frosting it. Everyone did a great job eating it.

And, with Mom. Not quite as tall as me, yet.
