Super hero, Away

I am so incredibly excited for D's birthday party. It's still a few weeks away, and believe me I still have tons to do, but I am still so excited. He hasn't had a party the last two years so I guess this one will be making up for that somewhat. The theme is super heroes, which is so fitting considering he takes on 5 different personalities most days. His favorites being Captain America, Thor, Flash and so many more. I think he just goes down his mental list to try to fit each super hero into his day. He runs past me with his arms out like he is flying and the next minute he has the top from the hamper pretending its a shield. He has even started making symbols out of paper and gluing them to his shirts. Yes, I said gluing!! Surprisingly he is pretty crafty with crayons, construction paper, and kid scissors. The first time he made Superman's shield (who by the way, he had abandoned for a while after daddy told him that he is an ALIEN) I was shocked and thought that R must have helped him. But no. I am hoping this party to be epic. Well as epic as a young parent with limit means can make it for a 5 year old. I'm inviting his entire class (18 kids) plus all of our friends. We are having a taco bar, and yummy cake. And it's going to be 11/11/11 at 11! (He was born at 11:01). I figure this will be the only time in his life that he sees those number like that!! :) AHHH I cannot wait. I hope he is just blown away and remembers it forever. I will have to post some pictures afterwards of all the decorations and cake! Gonna be a blast. I don't think he even realizes that he is going to have a party. I can't wait to see his face. :)
