On March 11th, Landon turned 7 years old. Hard to believe, isn't it? It amazes me that he is already that old. I honestly don't know where the time goes. Landon looks so big to me now when I look at him. He is getting much more independent and doesn't need us as much as he used to, which makes me very sad. Landon is still such a sweet boy. He is definitely a rule follower, and does not like when people do things they aren't supposed to do. He is also very kind and considerate of others. Landon still loves to play sports. He plays soccer, basketball and baseball. He also takes art classes once a week at the school and still takes piano lessons too. Landon sings in the choir at church and does a great job. He definitely keeps us busy. Landon loves to read, draw, write stories, play outside, play with Legos, and just be creative. He also loves to play with his little brother, and most of the time, they play pretty well together. Landon is such a sweet, smart, funny, creative and adventurous boy. We are so blessed to have him in our lives and we love watching him grow. He has a contagious smile and brings us so much joy each day! :)
On Landon's actual birthday, he had a donut with a candle in it at breakfast. He got to celebrate at school. Since he isn't allowed to take in any edible treats, he took St. Patrick's Day buttons with the Peanut characters on them for his friends. He also got to wear a birthday crown around all day. That night we went out to dinner to celebrate with him as well. He picked "The Rail" to eat at, which is a great burger place with excellent milk shakes. He had a peanut butter brownie milkshake for his dessert!
While we were waiting to be seated at the restaurant, Matt took the boys to ride the train at the mall.
Our birthday boy!!
After dinner, we came home and Landon opened his presents. He got some new clothes, the Peanuts movie, and a new bat and cleats for baseball this summer.
The next day, Landon had a birthday party with his friends. It was Peanuts themed and he had a snoopy cake. We also made Charlie Brown oreos, and gave his friends a Peanuts cup, book, and Peanuts fruit snacks as their favor to take home with them. We went to Westlake Rec center again this year, and Landon had a swimming party. First, we ate pizza and had cake. Then, he and his friends had a blast in the pools! He had a great day and we enjoyed watching him have so much fun!
