Cheetah's birthday

After the wedding, it was time to get ready for Cheetah's birthday. Man did he score this year.

Cheetah has wanted a Nintendo DS since they came out. We resisted for ages because we have 2 playstations (1 & 2), 2 computers (plus a bunch of various computer parts that fill about 3 x 64L plastic tubs (not including cases & monitors), and various little computer game type toys.



Anyway, the two cousins his age that live nearby, as well as most of his school/PCYC friends have one so we finally gave in & got him one for his birthday. (When I say most of his school friends, he has about 10 close friends who all have one). Because we go on car trips (short & long) with his cousins, as well as camping with them too, we felt a DS would be well worth it for those times including the looooooong drives to NSW & back to visit Nanna.

Here is Little Bear presenting Cheetah with his DS.



Cheetah is a very good big brother. Here is Little Bear helping him open his present.















And here is little bear after all the presents have been opened (for now) getting a little bit overexcited at the whole deal & throwing herself at Cheetah, his presents & the wrapping paper.












Cheetah wanted a roller-skating party this year. Note the birthday cake was made that morning in time for a party at 10:00am. I was impressed with my own efforts.

It doesn't show up very well, but there is a number 9 out of M&M's on top of the cake.

And here is Uncle J & Little Bear.

That night we had the extended family over for pizza.

All in All, Cheetah really enjoyed his birthday
