Tyler Turns SEVEN

Our baby is SEVEN years old!

Tyler is a fun kid. His sense of humor is really developing and he comes up with the funniest things. He's quick witted. He loves to learn, he's always coming home from church or school with a list of things to tell us.  He loves to play soccer.... and play outside in general. He can also be moody. His temperament can change almost immediately. But hopefully that is an age thing!

He was very specific about what he wanted for his birthday. His birthday fell on Good Friday this year so he was really glad to be out of school.

He wanted a huge plate of hashbrowns for breakfast.....

For lunch he wanted sushi. (I blame Lee.)

He also wanted guacamole, which is his favorite thing. I hadn't made any yet, I was waiting for him to finish the sushi. In the meantime he took the wad of wasabi that came in the sushi package (thinking it was guacamole) and tossed it all in his mouth.


Needless to say, the result was unexpected. The poor kid. His mouth was on FIRE. I could not stop laughing. I know that's terrible because I should have been concerned but it was so funny. (He's still mad at me for laughing.) After we washed his mouth out for awhile, he returned to normal.

Dinner was... of course... Nachos.

Of course we had to say hi to the manager, Salvador. We love that guy. He's so nice.

...and always lets the boys pick out some free candy.

Tyler didn't want anything else, food wise. He didn't want a cake, cookies, ice cream.... he wanted nothing. Simple kid!

That day happened to be free cookie day at a new place named Crumbl. We all went in to get our free cookie. Even though Tyler didn't want one, I made him get one so I could eat it. :)


When we went in we saw a ton of people we knew. Including Sadie from Will's class, the kids old assistant principal and many people from church. It turns out that a family in our ward own the company and everyone was there to support them. (We just went for our free cookies! ha!)

I need to get a good picture of him so I can do his yearly picture line-up. Actually ,I think he's the only kid I do that for. Oops! I'll have to remedy that.

He opened several cards that morning.


And was really excited when he saw the picture of Granny's present. He's really into Beyblades right now (basically an overpriced top) and she bought him a few.

My fancy wrapping was in the Amazon box. Oh man, I'm failing around here!!

He also loves to get sprayed by Silly String. He is our silly string kid. He talks about it for a month beforehand, and I'm always grateful because I would surely forget to buy it. We lured him into the living room that night (after almost forgetting) and he "acts" like he doesn't like it. But we all know he lives for it.



What a fun kid. HAPPY 7th BIRTHDAY TYLER!!
