Happy Birthday Ben!!

Over the weekend we celebrated Ben's birthday. Kyle was SO excited and wanted to be Daddy's helper to open his cards and unwrap his present. On the card from Kyle I let him draw/write/color on it. Kyle LOVED "signing" Daddy's card and had to show Ben all his marks he had made. :-)

Now onto opening the present! I didn't tell Kyle what it was so when Ben asked Kyle what he is was getting Kyle told him "A Box". (Well technically he was right!)

Every year for Ben's birthday I have always gotten him a cake. Even on the years he was in the Marines and out of town/state/country we would have cake when he came home. This year I didn't have time to make one and I forgot to special order one. (I know I'm bad) so Kyle and I went to the store to find one in the bakery counter. Kyle selected cupcakes! Which was really perfect since we really didn't need all that cake around the house. :-)

Anyway....after dinner we sang "Happy Birthday". Kyle really surprised me by knowing all the words to the song. But what was the funniest part was in between each line of the song he would try to blow the candles.... "Happy Birthday to you...BLOW....Happy Birthday to you....BLOW... Happy Birthday Daddy....BLOW.... "

Watching Kyle really was hilarious! I wish I had recorded it however I think was laughing to hard to hold the camera steady.
