Jonathan's 9th birthday

Jonathan turned 9 on December 14th.  It was in the midst of all of us being sick, so it was a little crazy.  Thankfully, Jonathan wasn't sick, so we went ahead with our celebration. :)
He chose french toast for his birthday breakfast

The first thing Jonathan wanted to do on his birthday was open presents!  He wanted all day to be able to play with them...and how could we argue with that? :)
His last gift had to be hidden under a blanket, because the from would have given it away. :)
The guitar was a gift from my mom and dad... it's a 3/4 size (or a 'Spanish guitar'), and it was actually made in Valencia!  Jonathan LOVES music!
 By the time the afternoon came around, Carolina was sick.  It was a little crazy how the kids kinda fell like dominos.  Carolina wanted to sleep, so she went to bed super early without even eating dinner! So... it was a bit of a strange birthday celebration without our girlie.  All the boys commented on it.  It was a little sad without the joy and energy of Carolina, but we did what we could... :)
Of course, the cake is ALWAYS a big deal with our kids.  They tell me their theme, and mom figures out a way to make it.  Jonathan loves monster trucks.  This one was fun and easy to make... we kind of improvised as we went, and it turned out ok!



He liked it so much, it ended up all over his face. :)
Happy Birthday to my sweet boy!
