Already such a ladies man. I swear he's the only boy I've ever known who invites mostly girls to his birthdays. He knows they have the best taste in gifts lol. Kiedis loves hanging out with the girls (and their amazing girl toys), I'm so glad that we live in a time where that's totally acceptable and he's not berated for it by peers or family.
As for the girls...
Well they're all about the chickens. They spent most of the day in the run trying to catch them all. Who needs clowns or bouncy castles when you have chickens!
Lots of romping around outside the chicken run as well.
We really couldn't have asked for better weather!
The ol' tire swing getting some love!
And this thing whatever it's called...
Cake & Gifts
They spelled his name wrong, but I can't get mad, we did give our son the last name of the lead singer for The Red Hot Chilli Peppers, not a common name at all.
Judging by the moustache and dilated pupils I'd say Stryder enjoyed the cake.
Kiedis' weakness...Beenie Boos. I think he got like 6 of em lmao!
And cards, he is such a sweet boy and always reads them first. I love how all of the kids picked this tiny space to open the gifts and even cuter is how they are all interested in hearing what each card says, look at them crowding in intently in the photo above. What darling children each and every one of them are...we're truly blessed to have such a great community here.
April showers bring May flowers. What a wonderful day.
Watch the Girls Try to Catch Chickens (And See @EddieBowes Come to the Rescue)
(Video 1:10)
Have a great weekend everyone, it was an amazing day but I am so pooped now, thanks for coming along!
If you wanna the chicketta beeches forra the party you needa to see the Don, capishe?
I letta you off this time cause it’s a the boy Kiedis birthday, but donna you forget the Don isa the number one pimp.
Happy Birthday liddle dude.
Don Poltryoni - Party animal & Chicketta pimp daddy.
The birthday boy, Kiedis, sure a handsome dude! I understand why the girls flock around! He has some good taste in girls too. I notice the girls are in the run and the guys are outside! LOL I think Stryder loves chocolate cake too! What a beautiful day for a party! The sun is actually shining! Sorry I missed the party. I looked like a lot of fun! Happy 8th Birthday, Kiedis!
Yes, the little Mamas all in the run, I thought they wouldn't want to be in there this year, because we don't have any baby chicks like last year. Nope, didn't make any difference to em at all :) :)
Wish you could have been here too, especially with what's going on in your country right now, would love to whisk you away Ceci!!
Happy Birthday, little buddy! I'm so glad he had a great birthday. He seems like a really emotionally intelligent guy!
Kiedis loves hanging out with the girls (and their amazing girl toys), I'm so glad that we live in a time where that's totally acceptable and he's not berated for it by peers or family.
THIS! I can remember as a child I begged and begged for an easy bake oven(lol my love for cooking started early) but my big macho father refused. I would love going to visit with my girl cousins so I could use their easy bake oven and so I could coordinate their dolls wardrobe. Unfortunately, I was ridiculed by family for it, but it did not change my desire to play with toys I had an interest in. Trust me, it didn't stunt my manliness one iota and nobody(including my dad) has ever refused my good cooking!
The positive aspect to that is that it made me a much better father that didn't put rules on what was acceptable for my daughter to play with. She played with dolls and GI Joes side by side. It was more important to me that I raise a decent human and well rounded person that society's definition of a princess.
Sorry didn't mean to go off on a tangent rant...lol Happy Birthday Kiedis!
Omg you love food and cooking so much what a sin that you couldn't get that easy bake oven! I'm so glad you let your children be who they were and play with the things that interested them, ALL STAR DAD right here!!!
Rant on anytime, I really enjoyed your comment @papacrusher.
Happy Belated Birthday Kiedis, From your UK Native American Indian Flute Player (just played Happy Birthday for you Me 0'l Muck'er, hope you had great fun on your special day... Blackhole Bridger.
Happy Birthday to our special 8 year old. Kiedis. love from Oma and Opa in Ontario. We will give you a call on your special day and there will be a treat when we get home. Boys who like girls make great husbands, because they understand them. Just keep being you, you are so very special and we love you. XXXXX
oh shit did we ever. we were hungry and hot and sweaty and we lost power for 30 hours. not fun. but what can you do. it is on now and we will call after dinner tomorrow. xx love to all
oh it was just crazy stupid actually... thank god it was warm, we made a small bonn fire in a metal bird bath and cooked hotdogs. hee ..the winds were crazy..really crazy. stuff down everywhere. we were grocery shopping and it took both of us to hang on to the cart. hee..
I love this documentation of Kiedis' 8th birthday!! Those chickens are not interested in being caught!! LOL my fave is the room full of tentative beautiful children enjoying the gifts! OML 💜🙌 🎶 Happy Birthday kiddo!! Nice party and post momma bear! Rest well 🌹🌹🌹
What a celebration moment with little girls. So cute of them and doing enjoyable tasks near by your location. Beautiful weather condition very deserve to kids activities. Girls Try to Catch Chickens video more interesting to watch.Thanks to all girls and boys showing great entertainment.
lyndsay
Thank you for showing us the wonderful birthday of your son and the photos.
Fair warning here. The time will rocket away much faster than you would ever believe and he will be a young man in no time.
But, that is then.
Now you have the delight and soon the memories that will never fade away.
Hi kiedisbowes, Happy Birthday Kiedis <3 <3
I can not send you gifts, I can only give my prayer and hope .. may you grow big, smart and handsome and also can make your parents happy.. Amiiin <3 <3 miss u Kiedis.
.
Many children, nice day , thanks @lyndsaybowes very nice when can join you there. <3
A fun and noisy occasion. Probably only the chickens a little in shock. Well they should be glad that they took the game, and not in the soup) Haha)))
Just yesterday I talked about childhood holidays, which is a real test of strength, a super quest for mom)
Thank you for visiting us Anna :) You are very right about the hens preferring to be caught but not put in soup! Always seeing the bright side of life :) :)
Birthday Party are really enjoyable. And @lyndsaybowes your post remind me my birthday party and happy birthday to Kiedis. May god make successful in life. ☺
Thanks Monica, it is really special especially because we left a big city to move out here a few years ago, so this is exactly how we envisioned our future with the kids, and it's great to see it come true. xo
Oh yeah! This handsome dude is already the 'lady's man and I am already so in love with his innocent looks. Happy Birthday darling Kiedis, you will touch the clouds and walk on top the skies. I wish you the best.
That is so funny Lyndsay... "invites mostly girls to his birthday"...I'd say he must be a smart kid. Girls not only have the best taste for gifts, the are also the 'best' friends; according to my experience in life. I've had far more female friends than male. After growing up with six women, you'd think I'd grow tired of em...nope...never.
Great pics too...enjoyed them all.
Happy Birthday Kiedis...Regards
Happy birthday kiedis .. I wish success for you ,, and today is a very memorable day for you ,, it is worth it many women who hang out with kiedis is clear because he is very handsome and his smile is very mesmerizing,, perfect dimples ..

HAHA I totally 'innerstand' what you are saying but I am in the opposite way, I grew up with all brothers, and feel comfortable being one of the guys.
I'm glad you've had so many great relationships with girls as friends!
Looks like a fun day was had by all!
Happy birthday Kiedis!
