Kailer is 6!

Boy do I feel old! Kailer is 6 years old. He has been sick with laryngitis, so we had to cancel his Super Mario Brother's friend party this Saturday. We were so sad. I was sad because I had put so much time and money preparing for it, and I felt sad for Kailer. Kailer was sad for the obvious reason. He had been talking about his party for 3 months. Since he was sick, we didn't do much. He opened his presents, we sang Happy Birthday, and we had cake. By far, the most low key birthday we have had at our house. He still told me, "mom, this is the best birthday ever.", so I am glad he at least felt special on his day. Here are a few pictures. Don't judge the "cake". It was my first attempt to make a birthday cake instead of just buy one. The cupcakes are supposed to be Super Mario Mushrooms. I tried, and Kailer loved it, so that is enough for me.

Kailer is such a special boy. He has improved sooo much in the last year. He loves school, and has done excellent this year. He is right on target for where he should be. He is still struggles with his fine motor skills, but he is doing much better. Kailer loves primary now, and I am grateful that he has wonderful teachers. He is excited every Sunday to go to their class. Kailer is a friend to everyone, but he loves Josh and Jovanni. He talks about them all the time. He loves the wii, and loves any thing to do with Mario and Luigi. He is so good at the wii, better than mom and dad most days. He still loves his trains, but isn't as obsessive about them as he used to be. Kailer is an awesome big brother. He loves his little sisters so much and is always looking out for them. He gets upset if he thinks they are doing something that might hurt them or get them in trouble. He is so sweet with baby Kodee. He follows her around the house until she does something naughty, and then picks her up and tells her "no no Kodee", and takes her to play in her room. I am waiting for him to drop her since he is dying laughing when he does it. He has once loose tooth, that seems like it will never fall out. He is still a big boy. When we took him to the doctor this week, he weighed 63 pounds, and I am pretty sure he is the tallest 6 year old I know. We love Kailer and can't wait to see what his future holds.
