Happy 6 Ivan Boy!! This kid knows exactly what he wants and will let you know in no uncertain terms. He's my best helper and my best babysitter. He loves all things poisonous or dangerous. His favorite color is black. He knows every spell in Harry Potter books 1-5, and will use them on you as needed. He is thoughtful, practical, and passionate about the things he loves. He is a keeper and I'm glad we've had him these 6 years.
He wanted to go to lunch at Costco for his birthday, Gramma Tam came down to spend the day with us too.
Several days ago, I asked Ivan what kind of cake he wanted, he told me he'd have to think about it. A few days passed and he came and found me in the kitchen and said, "Mom, I've decided what kind of cake I want. I want a three-layer white cake with lemon frosting between each of the layers. On the outside I want the frosting to be black, and on top I want a white spider-web." Oh? Is that all, haha! Luckily a round cake is easy enough. And on his actual birthday day he changed his mind and decided he wanted chocolate cake instead of white cake. This is how it turned out:
Ivan hit the jack-pot for his bday. We found him a bike on KSL for $10. Cleaned it up, pulled the old stickers off of it, and put new, cool, Spiderman stickers on it. (If you can't tell, he's a little bit in to Spiderman right now.)
He also wanted a guitar, but was perfectly thrilled with this ukulele instead.
It wasn't Ivan's year to have a friend birthday party, but we are going swimming at the Provo Rec Center as a family on Saturday to celebrate some more.
