Kieren's Fifth Birthday

Kieren turned 5 on Tuesday 4 March 2008. It was a birthday that he had been looking forward to for a long time and he made the most of celebrating it!

They celebrated his birthday at school that morning. The children had been put into classes by birth order so Kieren ended up being the first in his class to have a birthday. (It will be birthday city between now and the end of the school year in his class!) Mrs Delgado had a birthday hat for him which he wore all day; they sang Happy Birthday to him in singing; Donna was there as the class parent; and birthday cup cakes (half iced in his favourite colour - green) were shared by all.

After swimming that evening, he chose his favourite takeaway for dinner, sadly McDonalds, but keeps him happy. Lots of presents were opened that day as well, including many which had origins from our Florida trip.

Then on Saturday 8 March, he had a birthday party with all his mates out at Chuck E Cheese's in Rockville. Between playing on the play equipment; pizza and soda; birthday cake; meeting Chuck E Cheese; playing on the video and other slot games with their cups of tokens and selecting a prize when cashing in the resultant tickets, it was a great party.

Kieren then went to Caleb's for a play date while we took Olivia straight to Greta's party. After his play date, more present opening from those he received at the party. We had rocket balloons flying around the house for the rest of the evening!
