joseph is 7

this hilarious little dude is 7 today. i love him so much, because he always makes me laugh. he always says the weirdest things, which are hilarious - and looks at things in a different way to everyone else. he comes out with some amazing one liners and is always giggling away to himself.

he loves pretty much everything. like seriously, you could give him anything and he would love it, so he is so easy to buy for.

he's often off in dreamland and you have to call him over and over... hates doing jobs and would happily play video games all day long if it was an option.

one of the funniest things that has happened was when last year, he decided he wasn't cutting his hair to compete with another little boy in his class and ended up with this huge mop on his head by the end of the year. considering he only did one year and this other kid has been growing his forever, he definitely gave him a run for his money - but oh was i glad to see it go.

here's a classic example of joseph trying to make me laugh - trying on the most ridiculous pair of glasses he could find at the pharmacy.

he's recently started to love being in the water and has spent hours in jared and donna's pool trying to perfect his swimming.

and he still loves his food. definitely takes after his dad 100%. he is always hungry.

he has been dying for mario lego since he found out it was a thing, and doug and i pre-ordered it as soon as we could. then he needed a bike for christmas, so we had to put it away for a little longer... but today was the day

he was so happy with all his gifts...but the lego?

he was squealing and dancing when he opened it. definitely a good choice. my favourite part of the day though was him opening the ridiculous card i bought him. it had a pug dressed up as darth vader on the front - and when you open it, it barks the vader theme. it is so so funny and the look of utter disdain he shot me was worth the $10 it cost - as was the video i took when he opened it. happy birthday! from the bark side. hahahahaha.

his one request for his birthday was a caramel mud cake and aunty dom delivered. look how happy it made him.

happy birthday little dude! i hope all your dreams come true.

we love you joseph evan kendall ❤
