Teenage Caveman

So it happened. On the fourth of October I became the mother of a teenager. Crazy. Months later, I'm still not sure how it happened. But it did. Here's the rundown...

With a birthday in the first week of October, it falls on Conference weekend pretty often. He went to priesthood session on Saturday night, got home late and stayed up until midnight so he could turn thirteen and open a facebook account. Then he had to take a cool profile picture. Then edit the cool profile picture then search for friends and request friends. And he was up really late.

We spent his birthday watching General Conference. Then had his birthday dinner (he requested stir-fry). Then he took a nap on the couch. That hasn't happened since he was like two.



While he was napping I made cupcakes. Super chocolaty chocolate cupcakes.



He really likes chocolate so the cupcakes were chocolate with chocolate chips with chocolate frosting with chocolate sprinkles.



Yeah, it was a lot of chocolate.

We sang Happy Birthday,



He blew out the candles,



Then he opened his presents. He really wanted a cell phone.



We gave him some chocolate. Then told him he could have another present if he could find it. SO the girls helped him and they found it pretty quick.



He was very excited.



Over the next ten days he racked up 1500 text messages on that phone. And it this point in time I think it has permanently fused to his hand. Oh, the joys of having a teenager in the house.

Happy Birthday Caveman!!! We love you!!!!

And baby LOVED your cupcakes.
