C's Sixth Birthday!

My baby, C, turned six on Tuesday! I can't believe he is 6...
He came down for a birthday breakfast of chocolate chip pancakes. Certainly not the normal fare around here! I made this placemat for him from pieces of felt I had and some ribbon. I also sprinkled confetti over everthing (but had cleaned up most of it by photo time!)I also tied a big ribbon around his seat...

I had talked to the boys after a crazy birthday party about maybe having smaller parties and they both fully embraced that idea. (phew!)
All C wanted to do for his big day was go to Build @ Bear with his friend T and go to Uno's for dinner. Done. Easy. stress free. Fabulous birthday choice! C had a blast and we were really able to make his day special! (and I didn't have to hire a magic clown...)

And here are the boys making their wishes on the hearts. They all had a great time and it wasn't at all overwhelming. Can't wait to find out what he picks for next year!

He's so cute! I'm glad you all had fun on his special day. I totally agree with Preppy Sue - LOVE the placemat idea and am definitely going to steal it! :)
