The weekend after his birthday we took him and some friends swimming. They all came over and they played video games for a little bit, sang happy birthday, and ate rice Krispie treats. Then we drove over to Carla Madison Rec Center on Colfax and swam. Cesar and I actually were just able to sit and watch- it's so nice to have older kids! Ruby does pretty well in the pool, not a total swimmer yet, but getting there.
Then we ate dinner (sandwiches and chips) outside because I found out they don't allow food inside. It was a bit chilly, but the kids didn't seem to mind. They had fun climbing the big boulder too.
Ruby gave Eli a water bottle for his birthday and Diego gave him a Rubik Cube- such nice siblings! Cesar gave him a bag of Takis (his favorite spicy chips) and we also bought him several new pants that he really needed.
Happy Birthday Eli! I love you and am so proud of the young man you are becoming! It's a strange thing watching your kids grow up. I can't believe this is his last year in elementary school! It's bittersweet for sure.
