Spiderman birthday

Sam is really into superheroes at the moment, Spiderman is his favorite. For his 3rd birthday in early August, Sam got another Spiderman outfit, and superhero books among other things. Naturally I got him a spiderman birthday cake. I also made "web" cupcakes so he could share them with his friends in daycare. The week before his birthday, Sam was invited to a party in Chipmunks playcentre. He started asking for a party for his birthday after that, probably jsut realised you could invite "friends" to your party! We got away with just a family meal this year.

We still read spiderman, ironman and the incredible hulk stories most nights. But we had to buy kids-friendly Spiderman dvds, the adult ones (I just realised they are 15+ when the kids started to have nightmares) are simply too scary. Just the other day Sam came home with the daycare's spare spiderman undies (he had an accident). He pulled his pants down to show everyone his undies, and refused to take it off before his bath because he simply wanted to "hold it a little longer". Looks like the superheroes will stay in our house for awhile.
