Soren turns 7!

Happy Birthday Soren!!

Soren is a LEGO man.  He can spend all day playing legos, with people or without.  So when his birthday was coming we knew just the type of party to throw - a lego party.  We started off the party with building some lego race cars and then racing them down the track.  Our birthday boy creamed everyone - I was actually surprised.  How fitting.  Then we placed bit the part of on lego man, followed by a lego tower relay race.  We finished it off with cake, ice cream and presents.  It was a great party.

Ryan was working so it was me vs 10 kids - hence the lack of pictures.  It wasn't suppose to be that big but kids brought their siblings so we had a solid party.

Soren got to celebrate his birthday all month long.  It started out in the beginning of the month with a special day with Grandma and Grandpa Harris.  Then a special day with his family on his actual birthday.  A week later a party with his friends and then a week after that he had a special sleepover at Grandma Thompson's all by himself.  What a way to kick off your 7th year.  That boy is loved.

 Soren help design the top of the cake. It was a lego guy war.  There were bad guys who were hiding behind rocks and set booby traps to get the good guy - the one with wings.



 I think all his gifts were legos or lego related

He is such a sweet, boy.  He is always soft and gentle with younger kids and girls.  He is quick to hug and give a kiss to his family.  At Christmas time he was holding up mistle to over everyone.  Then he got upset when Xander wouldn't kiss him- he has never wanted to kiss Xander before.  "how come Xander will kiss you mom and not me!"  He protested.  He probably won't like this story when he is older - he he he he.  He is amazing at anything spacial.  He just knows how to put things together and how things work.  When I ask him where he learned that he says, "I just know." - Just like my brother Zaron.  We love you Soren!  We are so lucky you are in our family!!
