Ethan is Seven

Since I am due to have a baby soon, we opted out of having family over for a birthday party and just have a couple of Ethan's cousins over to play, and of course, to help us eat cake and ice cream. Shawn was so sweet in suggesting that we could get a store bought cake, but that is something I like to do for the kids AND Ethan is so used to having themed birthday parties (my bad!) that he knew what he wanted for his cake. I asked him to draw what he wanted...he definitely gets some artistic ability from his Papaw Kuhn! So, before it was time for Ethan to see the cake, I was quite worried he would think it wasn't up to his perfection, but he loved it - *sigh of relief*.


Indiana Jones Birthday Cake
Here are a couple of shots Ethan wanted to get on camera...


He is happy with his real bow and arrows from Daddy (and Mommy) and his target range downstairs. (Yes, he has to ask to use his bow and the other munchkins know where to stand.)

How special. My oldest Ethan had something similar a few years ago. The cake was great.

I think you got some of Dad's ability, too. Love these kids!
