Sawyer has been excited for Chris's birthday to arrive for a long time now because he picked out his present for him over a month ago! I took him to Kohls and told him to look for something for daddy's birthday and after walking through the store for a long long time he finally said, "that one!" He was so excited when he picked out the perfect gift. I had no choice but to buy it! It was indeed a Superman Snuggie!! One morning a couple of weeks ago Chris had on his Superman pajama pants (which I assume is why Sawyer thought he would love the Snuggie) and Sawyer said to Chris, "daddy's birthday? Superman birthday?" Little did Chris know that he was telling him what his birthday present was!
Chris's birthday weekend started out on Friday when we took Sawyer to Springfield to see Despicable Me in the theater. We got home around 9:00, put Sawyer to bed, and popped in a movie for a relaxing evening. About an hour later the doorbell rang. Chris got up, looked out the window puzzled (not a lot of people ring our doorbell out in the middle of nowhere), and said, "someone is really here." He opened the door and Ryan and Angela were standing on the other side with big smiles. I think Chris was really surpised and he was so excited to spend his birthday weekend with great friends.
When Sawyer woke up Saturday morning and I told him it was daddy's birthday he immediately went to the closet and pulled out the present. We wrapped it with care and very special sesame street paper and dog stickers. He could hardly wait for daddy to get up and open his present! He was so proud as he watched him open the very special gift!
We had a great weekend with friends and family! We are so blessed!
