Derek's New Favorite Number is 6
Now that Derek is six, his new favorite number has changed from 5 to 6. Derek's actual birthday was on Sunday and was pretty low-key. He woke up to the traditional streamers hanging in his doorway and sign on the door. We went to church where they sang to him and gave him a crown. We came home and ate our usual nachos, but by calling them "birthday nachos" it made it a little more special. We also let him choose the chip with the most cheese. :) He chose taquitos for dinner which was more than okay with me. Super easy, since they are the frozen variety. :) After dinner we had cake and presents.
Derek has a funny thing with his feet. We think they are just super, ultra-sensitive. He freaks out when we try to clip his nails and don't even think about giving him a foot rub. Because of this sensitivity, he LOVES getting new socks. I think we all do though. But I just think it's cute that a 6 year old is already in love with it. So we bought him a pack for his birthday.
Yes, that is cake number 2! Lucky kid. He had asked for a chocolate Batman cake months ago and no one wants to disappoint their child on their birthday. :) When I showed him the cake with just the Batman symbol he said "it's perfect". Then I showed him the cake with the border and he said "oh, now it's more perfect!".
