Haven turns 9 today. I'm not quite sure how this happened. Time is literally flying, as this boy grows up in front of my eyes. His name fits his sweet personality perfectly. This is one thoughtful and tender-hearted boy. And I couldn't be more proud of him.
His birthday requests are simple: Lunch at Subway, dinner at Olive Garden and playing Xbox 360 with Daddy and then with Mama. I will do my best to assist Haven in annihilating the Empire's Stormtroopers. (or the Rebel Alliance, depending on which side we're on) If you know what I'm talking about, you're a Star Wars geek like us.
We gave Haven the option of a photo shoot with Daddy in a birthday dress like his baby sister had for her birthday, but for some reason he declined our offer. So I decided to pick one of my favorite pictures from his past instead. Maybe he should've taken the birthday dress offer.
you are one sweet mama!! Happy Birthday Haven!! That baby pic is too cute!! Have a great day :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday!! Isn't it crazy how fast they grow? Enjoy the day.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday sweet Haven!

ReplyDeleteoh..and on a completely unrelated note...I bought Twilight yesterday and I plan to read it on the plane ride back to Germany. I want to see what all the hype is about...

Happy Birthday!! Subway, now that is a cute choice!!! He looks like he's grown just in this picture! He looks so handsome and his expression is just like his momma!
ReplyDeleteHave a great day Haven!!
BAHAHAHAHAHA What a fun picture. Someday when he graduates from high school you can display this:) Moms are free to do that you know.
ReplyDeleteWe always give the kids choices of meals too, and we laughed one year when Chuckie wanted steak and shrimp cooked on the grill by dad. The other two always want pizza.
Good choices Haven!
Happy Birthday Haven! Those were good choices for food for the day. I love Olive Garden. Eat a lot of bread sticks for me!
ReplyDeleteLove the pictures!
Wow, Haven looks just like you. He does look like a kind child. I like his birthday request too. Nothing outlandish yet. Again, enjoy him!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Haven!!
Happy Birthday Haven, and love that cute chunky butt picture!!! So great!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Haven!! You are such a sweet boy. Your mama has nothing but sweet things to say about you. Enjoy your yummy food choices and xbox with mom & dad.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, Haven! Psst! You would be totally justified giving your mom the silent treatment for throwing that picture up. Just sayin' is all. ;D
ReplyDeleteThat baby picture is so cute! And such a handsome boy he has grown into. Happy Birthday Haven!
ReplyDeleteLook at that cutie baby tushie!!!!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, Haven!
My oldest is going to be nine in a couple weeks...I can't believe it!
Oh what a sweet picture! I love what a cutie he was (and is). Happy Birthday to him! And what an easy birthday request... if only everyone were that easy.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday sweet buns!
ReplyDeleteCan I just pinch those sweet little chuuby-buns?
ReplyDeleteYou shoulda' done the photo shoot in the dress, dude!
Happy Birthday.
Hope he had a great birthday!
ReplyDeleteI too, think Haven favors you...
ReplyDeleteHope he had a great birthday! How was dinner? I saw your tweet that Olive Garden was busy...
Happy birthday to you!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to you!
Happy birthday, dear Haven.
Happy birthday to you!
9?! Ack. How does this happen. My oldest will also be turning 9 this year (in May). And for the life of me, I cannot recall ever having pushed the fast forward button that seems to be controlling his youth.
I hope Haven had a wonderful tree, with gifts from under the purple birthday tree! ;)
Oh those cute lil' "cheeks"!
