For some reason he looks so much older today. I know that sounds silly but he was like a little man today! We started the morning with a scavenger hunt. He had to read 5 clues and after each clue he had to find a present. The presents were little things to put in his brand new fish tank! He has been asking for fish for a while. He was so excited as he found presents around the house, but at the same time you could tell by the look on his face that he was confused. He wasn't quite sure why we would give him a pirate ship and plastic plants in a bag.
Finally the big moment...the TANK. We spent the morning preparing the water, checking the temperature, running the filter, and making sure that everything was quite right before we went to purchase our fish.
In the afternoon we went to Gianni's bowling birthday party. We had soda, popcorn, and cake. The kids bowled for two hours with a break to open presents and receive their thank you goodie bags.
Shot a little bit of video of hte boys getting crazy! Who knew that there would be dancing at this party!

The girl lane consisted of Jordyn, Sydney, Lola, Sophia, and Carmen
After the party we went to the pet store to pick up our three new Glofish. They are tropical community fish and if we can keep these 3 alive, there is plenty of room in the tank for more. Gianni named them very scientifically based on his observations. Tiny, Yellow, and Smooth are now swimming around their new home in Gianni's room.
Tonight he came out of his room twice after he had been tucked in to tell me how happy he was with his day. He actually said, "I can't sleep because I am just still so happy. This was a great birthday. Thanks mom!" Man I love this kid! Happy Birthday Gianni.
