Corky is 7...

At the end of March (yes, a whole month ago), Corky turned 7!!  Now, I can even hear you saying, where did the time go???  7... that's such a big number!!  he had an awesome big boy party, Jo never lets them down.  He wanted a pizza and movie party, with a banana, bubble gum and vanilla ice-cream cake and a slush puppy machine...  it was AWESOME!

An excited birthday boy, waiting patiently for his candles to be lit - hahaha... look at Bi squeezing through...

I'm sort of hoping that Jo's bending down a bit in this pic, Jake cannot be that tall yet... 

A little kiss from his mommy as his friends sing to him...

Pauly-wauly getting in for the pics too...

Stinky!!  That's very rude; pointing tongues out at your auntie...

Nini sent a card for Bi, sealed with a kiss... that's Bi getting her kiss from Nini...

Corky was a blur... he had a super fun evening...

The whole crew...

The party boxes...

Jake was very excited to go home with Corky after his party and to watch him opening his presents...

And boy oh boy was this little man spoiled...

And I think that Jake was maybe just a little jealous that he wasn't still turning 7...

Beautiful Bi about to pass out from exhaustion...

All in all, it was a fantastic party.  Corky had a ball with his friends and Jo very cleverly plans parties at their lifestyle center, so that there's no mess at home and clean up is quick!

Corky, you're the craziest, kindest, gentlest, big-hearted 7 year old I know.  I love your sense of humour and how smart you are, especially at maths!  I love how much you love Jake and what good friends you boys are growing up to become.  I love how protective you are over Bi as her big brother - that's so important and I hope that you mange to always look after our little princess.  You have wonderful friends and I can see that they all love you too.  You are a very special, very loved little boy!!

Lots of love,

Auntie Sue xxx
