Liam’s Birthday

Liam’s birthday was on a Sunday, so he had nine friends over for his birthday party on Saturday. Not as loud and high pitched as Helena’s seventh, but it definitely was still loud. And, there was much more running. They ran around the downstairs playing “it” with a ball.

Two kids wanted dad’s to stay. One dad eventually got the okay to go, another never did.

Liam was having a great deal of fun. Liam’s best trait is that he gets enjoyment out of seeing other people enjoying themselves, and he displayed this all afternoon long.

Again, it was a no-present party, but the food, cake, and ice-cream went over well. Too bad it has to be held indoors. Ada was a little nervous with all the noise. Helena played a bit with some kids for awhile, but then she went to the couch with a book.

Liam’s “real” birthday was in the morning, which explains the opening of presents with messy hair and pajamas. It was the Mario Kart birthday….pretty much everything he got was Mario in one way or another. Weeks later he’s still drawing pictures using his Mario trading cards as images to copy, wearing his Mario pajamas, walking around with a Mario keychain-type thing on his backpack, and so on.
