Adam’s 4th Birthday

Pre-Birthday preparations:

Presents wrapped  - check

Balloons from last year blown up again - check

Cake baked – check

Tyler got to lick some cake batter…and of course he wanted “more, more!”

May 11th:

Our traditional birthday water play :)

Cake…

And Presents!

Adam and Erik got life jackets. (We gave Erik one too since we didn’t want to wait till his birthday at the end of the summer to give him his.)  It’s too big on Tyler but he likes to try it on.

We went to the pool a couple days later and had a great time. It was fun to have Erik and Adam be more independent in the water and be able to “swim” with the life vests on. Much less stressful for us too.

What a fun rocket!

 

The boys were playing with all the new toys non-stop for a long time. Birthdays are so fun!

Then friends came over and we had round two of water play, more cake, then more playing with toys, then hot dogs, and finally ice cream making and eating. I think Adam was busy with birthday fun from 11:30 am to 8:30 pm.

As you may notice no one is wearing a swim suit in this picture…guess what resulted…a lot of wet drippy cold children. Our friends had to change into some of Erik’s clothes. I ended up washing and drying their clothes because they didn’t want to go home “looking like boys.” Since when does a basic t-shirt and solid color knit shorts make you look like a boy? Anyways, it was a very busy, fun, crazy day ;)
