11, {really}?

My baby boy is officially 11!!!  Those exclamation points make it look like I'm excited about it, but I'm not, I wish I could go backwards in time not forward.  However, we've made it 11 years with him and the fact that he's awesome makes me feel better about celebrating another birthday with him:) 
G was attending Minecraft camp at a university campus the week of his birthday (which was the most perfect summer camp I've ever paid for, he definitely wants to go again next year) so we did a small "just us" family get together the night of his birthday. 

Clearly he's happy about the perfect gifts loved ones have chosen for him:) 


Nothing more amazing than seeing this kid smile so big:) 
I made a vegan cheesecake, he thoroughly enjoyed his cake:) 
That Saturday he had chosen to have friends come over and swim in our backyard.  We also rented a blow up slide that was a huge hit (duh, what kid wouldn't want to slide down a giant slip n'slide?). 
My fave cake lady as usual, blew us all away with her talents of making an allergy friendly cake for G.  G was very specific about what he wanted his cake to look like this year and she pulled it off, not surprised with her:) 









Happy Birthday buddy!!  We all hope you enjoyed your 11th birthday tremendously!  We couldn't be more proud of you if we tried, every stride you make no matter how small is HUGE in this house and you deserve to be recognized for all that you CAN and WILL do in life:)  Wishing you another year of  happiness, recovery, knowledge, health and good friends!

XOXO, Mom, Dad, Little R & Baby R
