Adam's Birthday Cake




We had a little birthday party for Adam the day after his birthday. Sadley there are not very many kids his age on either side of the family. So it was Adam and all the grown ups that celebrated his birthday. But he still had a great time and got a lot of fun stuff for his birthday. Adam had a contruction themed cake this year with trucks and tractors on it. He loved his cake and did a great job blowing out the candles.

Adam's Birthday




For Adams birthday we were staying at the Diquattros since we were in Arizona for Thanksgiving. So after Adam went to bed the night before his birthday we put his jeep right outside the door of where he was sleeping at Grandma and Grandpa Diquattro's house. I wanted it there so it would be the first thing he saw when he woke up. Ryan and I were so excited to see his reaction when he saw it. But that crazy kid....instead of coming in our room which he usually always does when he wakes up he ran down stairs to Grandma and Grandpa's room and woke them up to hurry and show them what was outside his room. He was so excited and was ready to ride. He had to get a few intructions from Dad, but after a few minutes he had it down. We could not get him off it all day. Ryan and I had to run a few errands later that afternoon and while we were out he wouldn't get out jeep to eat, sleep or go to the bathroom. Ryan's mom was watching him and ran inside to grab something. When she came back out he had fallen asleep at the wheel. His foot was still on the gas and he was going in cirlces. We missed a picture because Lori was by herself and didn't want to leave him unattended being that he was asleep at the wheel he could crash into something. So we don't have a picture, but we do have the hilarious story. It was so fun to see Adam that morning and all day on his jeep. I went a little overboard, but it was fun and since his jeep was so big we had to rent a uhaul to get it home to Vegas. But he still loves riding it and takes his little friends for rides.

Adam's Jeep


For Adam's birthday he got a jeep. He was starting to understand the concept of birthdays and birthday presents ever since he went to his friend Abby's birthday party. After her birthday I started to ask him what he wanted. And I have no idea where he got the idea, but he would always tell me, "A yellow jeep." So I started my search a month before. Unfortunately I wasn't able to find a yellow jeep, but we did find this green power wheels jeep. When he saw it for the first time I don't think we has too concerned about what color it was.

I know we're over a month behind. But better late than never.


Halloween Party!!! Crazy Dad was a mad scientist or dentist. Mom was a baseball player. Then of course there was Adam as spiderman. The party was great. The kids had so much fun and the grown-ups had just as much. They had fun games. Adam won some cupcakes from the cake walk. He got to go through a haunted house. He was a little scared, but when he saw that it was just his nursery teacher being silly he was okay. Then we went out side and had a trunk-or-treat. That's where people from our ward will go out in the church parking lot and stand by their cars with candy. Then the kids can go from car to car trick-or-treating. Adam got lots of candy and had a blast.
