Nathan’s 7th Birthday

Just even typing that is insane. He’s getting so big so fast, it kills me!

We had such a wonderful day for his birthday! He decided he wanted to go to the zoo and to Texas Roadhouse. We woke up, ate birthday pancakes and headed straight for the zoo before it got too hot.

It is basically impossible to get a picture of three children all smiling and looking at the camera. Just in case anyone was wondering. 😉 This was the part Nathan wanted to do the most – the last couple of times we’ve been here, the reptile house was closed so he was SO HAPPY it was open today. So was his dad. So was his brother. His mom and sister were not so much. Every exhibit, Eisley would look into the aquarium and say, “EW.” Ha! I was dying.

We rode the new carousel, which they did such a good job with!! The boys loved it! Eisley was not so sure about it once it started moving.

Little buddy loves himself a good carousel. Always has. 😉

“MOM! Let’s take a weird picture!” And of course this is the only one that Eisley was smiling in… 😉

You can’t say you went to the zoo if you don’t get a picture in the weird chair. It’s like a rule somewhere or something. Goodness I love these kids.

Nathan wanted Freddy’s for lunch, so we ate our greasy burgers and came home and everyone took a shower since we were all gross and smelly by that point. 😉 Eisley took a nap, the rest of us watched a movie and then it was time for presents! Nathan loved them all but went especially nuts over the boxing bag. 😉 Such a big kid gift. We were wrapping his presents the night before and I was mourning the days of Mickey Mouse themed gifts.

Texas Roadhouse for dinner and he just looks ridiculously old!

Nathan always requests Oreo Smush for dessert. 😉 Love, love, love my biggest boy! I can’t believe he’s seven!
