Liam's birthday

I have become a minimalist with birthday pictures.  Or I'm just too busy trying to be in the moment to take a ton of photos.  So, what I have is what I have for Liam's birthday day.  Let's say it was loud and crazy and busy.  Take our 6 kids and add 5 more neighbor kids and you have a houseful of fun.  Everyone helped hide Liam's presents and then helped him find them.  We had cake and the bigger kids settled in to watch Liam's new movie: Big Hero Six. He had a great time and I know he was excited to celebrate with lots of kids.

This guy asked for a rootbeer cake for his birthday.  Did not even know you could make a rootbeer cake.  Betty Crocker came through with the recipe, though.  Right before we lit the candles, Liam asked for an "autobot" to be put on his cake.  Enter internet search and print out of an autobot face.  Moment saved.  Happy boy.


The one picture with all his presents.  I didn't want to stop and have him hold up gifts after he opened each of them.  Plus, I couldn't have gotten through the scrum of children around to gifts to even see.  Liam was pretty happy with his gifts that included a new scooter and an ant farm.

Had to go outside and try out the new scooter.  It really is faster than the one he was riding and it's cool to Liam speed around on it.



There you go.  Liam is pretty pumped to be 6 years old.
