Kaleb's 8th Birthday

Kaleb had a great time at his birthday party this year at Celebration Station. Every time we go to Celebration Station, he will not ride the go-carts. He'll drive the kiddie ones but he won't ride as a passenger on the adult ones. We have been talking to him lately about "facing your fears" and he finally agreed to ride with me on the adult carts. Why me and not Bryan? I guess he thought that I wouldn't drive as fast... little does he know! HA HA! We got in the fastest car on the track & I drove full-speed the whole time, even squealing around corners. He had a BLAST!

What summarizes Kaleb at 8 years old:

    Positives:Negatives:
    • Loves to Read
    • Controlling
    • Enjoys Soccer
    • Already has a teenager attitude!
    • Competitive
    • Gets frustrated when he isn't the "best"
    • He is SO smart!
    • Sometimes too smart for his own good.
    • Cherishes true friendships

He is growing too much, physically & emotionally... make it stop!

Here are pictures of his birthday party...

Check out his face when he got some money in a card from Grandma & Grandpa! This boy loves money! You can catch a glimpse of me in the pictures in the white shirt w/ red flowers.

Gotta love BOY birthday parties!

Cake

Here, Kaleb is trying to act COOL and not show his excitement about his cake coming out of the pretend oven. But, he really enjoyed it. :)

This is his favorite present... his electric scooter from us. After getting home that day, he took his scooter out for a test drive. It goes about 5 mph and he has so much fun zippin up & down the street.
