With Wynn home, four of our children now have birthdays within 29 days (9/30 - 10/28). Because birthdays fall on weekdays and soccer days, and there aren't enough weekends to fit everything in, we handle the birthday marathon like this. Each child has a "little" birthday on the calendar date of their birthday. On this day, they get to take treats for their classmates, choose the dinner menu, have a small treat and birthday song with the family, and open a gift. On some other day that fits in with the hectic family schedule, they will have their "big" birthday, which includes friends, more cake, and more gifts. Gabrian and Ari are still young enough they don't totally hate sharing their "big" birthday. That will be tomorrow. Ari gets birthday cake, Gabrian gets ice cream cake, and they both get rowdy friends to jump with them at Jump N Party, an inflatable playground.
This is Ari's "little" birthday. Stylish hat courtesy of Sunshine Daycare.
