Today is Damon's birthday! I started the day by serenading Damon with the Happy Birthday song. He cut me off midway and said "No thank you Mommy." I said, "You don't want me to sing to you?" He really does like it when I sing but maybe it was too early in the morning for him. He did however sing to himself so maybe it was just my singing.
The musical stylings of Damon Ryder!
Before school I took him to get a birthday doughnut. When we went into the store I announced to everyone in there that today was Damon's birthday. All three people said happy birthday to him and we went skipping out with our doughnuts and off to school. Around 3:00 I picked up two dozen sprinkled doughnuts and took them to his class. The kids really enjoyed it...so did the teachers. I went back to work for a few more hours then picked Damon up around 5:30 to head home for a special dinner. He saw his birthday cake and opted out of dinner because he just had to have a bite of his cake.
Okay, it's his birthday so sure I'll let him have some cake before dinner. He didn't want to eat cake the regular way, you know with a plate and fork. He wanted to eat it by just taking a bite out of the whole cake. He took one bite and was done and ready to open up presents. Since his birthday party is on Saturday I only gave him one present to open. It was two sweatshirts and a pair of pants. His reaction was "Wow, they're totally awesome but are there toys?" Too cute. I gave him a card to open from Gee Gee's (great grandmother). Here is the video of him reading his own card and finding or should I say missing the surprise inside.
Then I told him I was taking him on a surprise date to the movie theatre tonight. He was excited and wanted to wear his new clothes and of course we had to model them before we left.
This is his signature pose. I'm still not quite sure what it is but he's working it!
This is his "How you doin?" look. Check out the lean...
This is his "man this life is tough" look. Everyone wants a piece of him...
It was time to head out for the movies. He was so excited. We saw the movie Bedtime Stories with Adam Sandler. Damon really liked the movie and he was laughing all through it. I just had to get a video of his cute laughter. Unfortunately you can not see him but just listen to his cute laugh. Towards the end of the video he realized I was video taping him and he was not pleased.
Is that not the cutest laugh you have ever heard? It's so Innocent and honest.
We had a nice date together but he is looking forward to his party on Saturday.
