Ian is 7! He was so excited to have a birthday, but the only thing I could get out of him as to why he was excited to be 7 was because he was excited to be in 2nd grade. Too bad he has another 6 months to wait for that! He brought moon shaped cookies to his class for his birthday.

He is really interested in outer space and planets, he wanted a Saturn cake.

Ian has wanted a watch since he was about 4, and he finally got one. We got an update of what time it was about every minute while we ate cake and ice cream :)

I don't think I've posted much about Ian's younger days, since I didn't have this blog then. So here are some pictures of his younger years - I also don't have many good baby pictures, since I didn't have a digital camera then. This is when he was one year old.

Two years with Daddy's hat on

Three years

Four years

Five years, first day of kindergarten!

His sixth birthday, #6 pancakes for dinner.

We are so glad to have Ian in our family, he is a wonderful big brother, is happy, and fun. He loves to read, he reads picture books and also chapter books. He loves school, loves to write, loves numbers. He's a great helper around the house and is able to do so much! He likes to play outside and be a spy or a detective, and use ropes and branches to build things. He likes to build with blocks and legos, but mostly when he's home from school he plays with his brothers, he loves his role as the oldest when he can tell his brothers what to play :)

Happy Birthday Ian!!! Wow! Has it been 7 years already? I remember when you were born...
Cool cake Cath!! It turned out awesome!
Wow, very cool cake! Happy birthday, Ian!
What a cool cake!! He's so cute, I love when they get their first watch. O would tell us the time constantly too.
Looking at him makes me remember us being prego at the same time. You came to visit me after I had O early and you yourself were dealing w/ Ian's medical issues. Its crazy to look at them now and think its been 7 years.
Cathy, That is the coolest cake ever, you are going to have to give me pointers on how you got it to be a ball and how you got it to stay up. I am amazed still, good job! Happy Birthday, Ian!
That is one awesome cake!
ok, i can't show the boys that cake. there's no way i could duplicate it and they'd want me to! samuel already watches how-to-make-cake videos on youtube and he's picked out an impossibly hard fire truck cake that he wants... :)
