Well just like that our little Bobo turned 10! I can't believe its been 10 years since that day I spent 12 hrs in labor waiting for him to come out! He took forever and was a little stubborn, just like his personality now! We offered him the option this year of an outing with a friend to someplace fun like Dave and Busters, or to have a nicer gift that he had on his list, so he picked the nicer gift-- which was a TV for his room! I never thought I would give in and get any of the kids a TV in their room, but it has started to make sense this year, since they all now fight over our living room tv. One wants to watch tv, one wants to play video games, and one wants to watch you tube videos, etc etc, so this was a pretty good idea, we think. Plus Caleb is our most responsible kid right now and we know he won't stay up all night watching tv (at least we hope! haha) And so needless to say he is very happy with his new tv, and the girls have been hanging out in his room a little more than usual.... haha.
We decided to do a birthday dinner for both Brooke and Caleb, at Village Inn, since both their birthdays are in August. We had it this past Saturday. we ordered a cake and Arnold put on The Flash symbol-- that is a show they have been really into lately so it was their "theme" this year. Caleb got a lot of birthday money from family and friends so we took him out that evening and he picked out a few new Lego sets he has been wanting. He is still very much into Legos, and any chance he has extra money that is usually what he pics out! He has even more sets on his Christmas list!
