| Each child got their own mini-cake. |
 |
| I love this series of Arthur. Shocked by his cake--7 candles really are bright. |
 |
| Contemplating the wish. |
 |
| Satisfaction. |
 |
| Sweet kids! Arthur thanking his sister for her homemade card. |
 |
| The party. Several friends from school and neighborhood. |
 |
| Cupcakes this time. |
 |
| We always sing separately to them in case you haven't noticed :) |
 |
| Lots of relay games in the back yard (this is egg and spoon). |
 |
| Dress-up relay was the finale. Very cute! |
 |
| And of course, presents! All of the kids had a great time. Happy 7th to Adaline and Arthur! |

| Another milestone in the family: first stitches. It comes as no surprise that Solomon was the first to send us to the ER for stitches. He jumped off the couch and hit the coffee table with his mouth. His teeth (front and back) went through his lip, basically removing the entire bottom of his lip. The plastic surgeon did 20-25 stitches to put it all back together. They were both inside the mouth and under the lip. It was very gross, but Solomon was so brave. He giggled through a large portion of the procedure and made jokes with the doctor the whole time. He also tried to re-enact the fall so that the doctors could get a clear picture of what happened (because I didn't see it and they were asking me lots of questions). They had to tell him over and over not to jump off of the hospital bed. Hilarious! |

| This sort of shows the stitches underneath his lip. He is completely back to normal now. You hardly notice the scar because it is just under his lip line. But our coffee table still bears the marks of the incident. Three teeth marks are imprinted on it where he fell! It's a miracle that his teeth are still in his mouth! Oh, Solomon. I'm afraid this is only the beginning of your life in the ER. I told the plastic surgeon that we will probably see him again soon! |
