I say Cody "officially" turned 9, because his birthday is on the 23rd. However, this year, he mainly just opened presents from family and had cake and ice cream with his family. The party is going to come during this next week when our cement has finished curring, and we get our pool set-up. He is really looking forward to that, and, it's quite funny, but most of the children that will be there are girls!! Cody is such a great guy that all the girls already love him! But, don't tease him about having a girlfriend, or you'll see a flood of tears. We learned that today, as big brothers were being "mean" saying that our neighbor Erin that he plays with was his girlfriend. Oh the drama!! But, he felt better when he went shopping later with his Walmart gift certificate from his cousins in Idaho, and came home with a score of fun new toys. Imagine that--toys can cure almost anything at this age!
You can still see a few of the boxes left to unpack, but I'm almost there! I don't know how old Cody will be when the funny ca lick in his hair will be gone. It's so much a part o
f his character now. It's mostly endearing now, rather than a frustration that won't go down, no matter how much water we spray on it! And, here is a picture of the coveted motorized scooter. He has been having sooo much fun!
