Worker man truck

We went to Toys R Us to get Zach a birthday present. While we were there, we decided that we would get a battery and a charger for Zander's old four wheeler. It was a hand me down and the battery was the wrong size, so it didn't work well. We discovered that a battery and charger were going to be almost as much as a new riding toy. We decided to go ahead and get him one. He really wanted the firetruck, but it was $400. Who can afford that? Not us! We settled on the Arctic Cat and he loves it. I think he has ridden it everyday. We took it over to Granny's and he rode it down to the old house and in the field. Then we rode over to the Brady Bunch compound and they all rode there cars and trucks. Much fun was had by all.

We went to Zachary's birthday party on Sunday, the 11th. It was at Chucky Cheese. This is the first time that Zander really had a good time there. The other times that we have been there, he rode 3 or 4 rides and didn't even notice that there were games there. This time he followed the other kids around and saw the video games. There was a fireman game where you use a hose and put out fires. He loved it! I didn't think we would ever get him away from there.
All of the kids had a great time. When we got home, he took off his shirt as he always does and he looked in his treat bag and found pink dracula teeth. He thought they were the coolest thing he had ever seen. He put them in and rode around and around on his tricycle. He couldn't figure out how to swallow his saliva, so every few minutes, he would start drooling. He would get off, wipe his mouth on a towel and then get right back on and ride some more. He even wore them in the bathtub that evening. I guess you never know what will hold a kid's attention.
Here is a slide show of the pictures from Zach's party.

Mom and Dad's Birthday Meal

Zander thinks when it is someone's birthday, that you always go to the Mexican Restaurant. We went for Mom and Dad's birthdays. When we went in, he went and told the manager, that we have two birthdays at our table and we need the mariacay band to sing happy birthday. They always pick at him and he has a great time.
We had a great meal as usual and then it was time for the sombrero! Check out the pics in the slideshow. Mom and Dad are styling. A great time was had by all. Happy Birthday guys!
