6.

So, it's been over a month, but Nathan has turned 6!    Once again we went to the Black Hills over his birthday.  This time, we drove out there on his actual birthday...which he decided was okay because his birthday was 25 hours instead of 24!

His six-year-old interests include reading, playing outside, playing Leapster, almost any movie he's allowed to watch, Star Wars (which he is not allowed to watch), and other things.

We decided cupcakes would be easiest for the party since we had to travel...but with sprinkles of course.

The Birthday Boy!

(who put a tattoo on his face)

 Nathan is a very sweet boy, full of energy and always talking.  He still remains our "passionate" child, who can fill a room with his laughter (or with his fits of rage).

Nathan, You are perfectly and wonderfully made-and We love you!
