Brayden turned 6 on Dec 16th. His days started by him waking at 5:00 in the morning vomiting and he didn't stop until I put him to bed that night. Poor guy, we had to cancel his party and he was soooo sad. He kept saying to me "Mom I promise I will be good and not throw up." It was hard to explain to him he was being good and that he or I couldn't control him being sick. Scott and I also didn't feel to good that day, so we all just laid around. He did get a lot of phone calls from people and Grandpa and Grandma Bishop stopped by, so that did brighten his day. That next day he was fine. So we celebrated.
Meet the newest member of our family. Spike Boomerang Bishop. Bryaden named him all by himself. He is Brayden's pet turtle. This year we let him pick out a pet for his B-day. (It's hard to pick out more toys for him, since it's so close to Christmas). It was a hard decision, he wanted a bird, lizard or turtle. A turtle it was and Scott and I should have done the research before buying it. After we got it home and got everything set up we read that the water should be in the tank 24 hours before placing the turtle in it. oops. We put him in any way and he is still alive, so that is a good sign and Brayden loves to watching/feed him.
Here's the kids when we brought Spike home, they both were excited.
Here's Brayden playing with the car rug Grandpa and Grandma Scholes gave him. Grandpa and Grandma Bishop gave him some K-Nex battery car. Brayden loves to build!!!!
A few nights before his B-day I went up stairs and he was making games to play at his party. The problem was we weren't having a party, I felt bad so I invited his cousins to come play his games. That's the party we canceled, but they were all good sports and came on Wed night and played his games. He called this one "pin the nose on the face."
This was a dodge ball game he made up with his own rules, basically girls against boys and no one got out.
I let him decorate his cake this year. He had a lot of fun!!!
Him blowing out his candle. Although it was a day late, he had a very Happy Birthday!!! Thanks for everyone coming to his party!!!!

Sorry we missed the fun! We still need to bring his present over. Happy Birthday, Brayden!
I like the idea of letting him decorate his own cake. I understand the crazyness of having a child's birthday at this time of year; it sounds like you figured out the perfect compromise for this year and it's especially good that your family was flexible and came after everyone was better! Have a wonderful Christmas!
How sad that he was sick on his birthday! I know what you mean about gift buying being hard around Christmas. Micah's birthday is on the 29th and we don't know what to get him yet. You're brave to get a turtle. I'm definitely not there yet:o)
