9

Will turned nine years old yesterday! We started the day with birthday muffins and lots of presents.

We asked Will what he wanted to do on his special day, and originally he had a detailed adventure involving three museums and lunch out...  only to realize that he had a stack of new toys and games to play with and he'd rather spend the day at home. We pushed our museum visits to another day and spent the day relaxing and playing and enjoying the time at home. Our big outing of the day was going to a toy store to spend a birthday gift card and picking up cupcakes at Crave.

This boy loves his new origami book from Gramma and Grampa.

Origami tulip.

Will was born at 3:05 in the afternoon, so we made sure to watch the clock and take a selfie as our big boy turned 9!

Dinner out is a special birthday treat. Will chose Tokyohana and ordered sushi (including salmon roe, which he loved!).  

At home, we had Crave cupcakes waiting for us.

Happy birthday to this sweet, smart, funny boy who made me a mom nine years ago. 

We love you so much!
