Happy 12th Birthday, Jordan

I can't believe that Jordan turned 12 today. Where has the time gone? Seems like yesterday I was holding him in my arms and rocking him to sleep.

Though today is his birthday, his parents had a party for him yesterday...a couple of his friends and family.

Jordan in his brand new hat. I think it suits him. Jordan likes hats and looks great in all kinds.
Brandon and his friend, Lucas. Lucas is also friends with Jordan. The two of them were hamming it up.

Grandma couldn't let the day go by without having a picture with Jordan in his new hat.

He loves Gilligan's Island and has season 2, so hubby and I got him season one. Gilligan has been loved by many for decades.

Yughioh cards in a tin. Jordan collects cards and has been wanting this Rainbow Dragon tin for a while.

Mario Cart for Wii with a steering wheel. Wii is a great game if young people really need to play games because it keeps them moving around instead of being couch potatoes.


The cake. Little hands (Griffyn) were reaching for it. Mom put candles on it and we all sang Happy Birthday. What a choir that was. Poor kid. His paternal grandparents were there as well and enjoyed the party.
The food was good. Hotdogs, sausage, potato and macaroni salad and cake, of course. Afterward we all sat around chatting. Here is Melissa, Tarryn (who wasn't feeling well) Brandon, Jack and Griffyn.
I cuddled and rocked Tarryn and after a while he started feeling better. Unfortunately, before the evening was over Melissa had to take him to the hospital. I knew he had the croup when I heard him cough and later his fever spiked.
Griffyn drumming on a Native drum while Mom (Melissa) and Tarryn look on. Tarryn isn't quite walking yet, but is getting around.
Tarryn drumming. Poor little guy. I really should phone Melissa and see how he's doing today.

Update: Tarryn was taken to the hospital last night with breathing related problems. He was given meds and sent home.

Happy Birthday, Jordan. Did you know you were born around 9am on a Sunday morning? Hope you enjoyed your day swimming with Mom, Brandon and Daniel.
