Celebrating Simon.

I love the room, it looks like it has the perfect amount of "stimuli" while looking super cute!

Love the tour on Ohh-Dee-Doh. Beautiful. I love his room. Love all the red and blue, maps and planets, vintage and new. These are my favorite things for a little boy, and what I plan on doing in a nursery when I finally have a little boy.
Have a great day!

Your talent is endless, Ali. Such a magical room for such a very sweet boy! I just love that "solar system" & the hanging lights! Happy 7th to Simon! :-)

Love the picture of Simon holding up his age.

The wall color in your son's room is great! If you know what brand and color name it is, would you let me know?
By the way, those are awesome birthday photos. If I were the one taking them, everything would look as dark as that cake.

Happy birthday to Simon :-)
I have followed your blog for quite some time but never realized until now that your son is so close in age to my third child, Mikkel.
He will be 7 February 13. He loves Star Wars too - and LEGO.
My work is at LEGO (lucky me!) in Denmark and Mikkel just think that is the most cool place to work ;-)
Let me know if you should ever want to visit Legoland Denmark...!

What a long way Simon has come. I have been reading your blog for several years and have watched him grow and learn. I have a seven year old, 5 y/o, and a 20 month old. Congratulations Simon!

I'm glad Simon had a great birthday! I have a 7 year old boy and it's a wonderful age! Enjoy every moment. :)

Simon's room is made of awesome!! Those cupcakes look delicious! May I ask if you purchased them or made them? If you made them, would you mind sharing your recipe?
Good luck with the "Star Wars" ship!

are those the star wars stamps hanging in a frame on the wall? i bought a set for my son and have them tucked in a folder. might you share where you got the frame and what size it is?
good luck with the lego's. they are in my opinion, the true test of "mommy patience".

Where did you buy the white tall wall shelves that are filled with cars, etc?
Thanks

Ali,
I don't know if it has been asked before. Where did you purchase the World Map? I want a huge one like that and child-friendly enough that kids can actually find the different countries.
Thank you!

Simon's room looks like a room my 7 year old would love to visit. A boy can NEVER have to many Legos,that's what my kiddo says anyway. He got 8 sets for Christmas.
What a very happy time of year for your family. Happy Celebrating!
Chocolate cupckes.....YUMMY!

You may want to let Simon take on that Lego ship on his own. My son always does better with out my help! Here, here to the previous comment concerning the Lego catalogs. There is always lots of excitement in our house when they arrive in the mail. Happy birthday Simon!
PS Love the baby bump!

Simon's birthday looks like fun! My baby girl will be 7 this year, too...and she loves Legos, too!
And Ali, thanks for getting me addicted to a new site today (ohdeedoh)! I can't stop looking at everything on there. Simon's room is great, and I'm sure baby A's is, too!

Happy Birthday Simon! That chocolate cake looks sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo darn good! :) Kathy

I love Ohdeedoh! Their nursery tours are awesome...as I'm presently planning one for our first baby! I saw that but didn't realize it was your Simon! :) Very cool!

Great room you have Simon! Thanks for the tour! And happy B-day to you!!! 7 is indeed a great year to be, and i hope it will bring you much joy and happiness!

Happy Birthday Simon!
Your photos are lovely. The one with seven fingers in front of his face is really cute! Where did you get those little Diego figurines that were on top of the cupcakes? Very unique. I love his room. It's very stylish and not too boyish.

Hi Simon - I am thrilled to hear you had such a wonderful birthday. I hope this turns out to be a terrific year for you. You're going to be a wonderful big brother to your little sister. What a lucky girl. When my daughter was your age I always called her the Lego Queen, boy did she love her Legos. Happy 7th!!!
