Caeleb turned 4 this September 14. Can you believe it! Blogging about his 3rd birthday seems like yesterday. He is growing up so fast but in my heart he will always be my little boy. I love the book "I'll Love you Forever" by Robert Munsch. I am the mom in that book. Caeleb is the little boy.
Chris also turned a year older on the same. They will have to share this day forever but my boys are good at sharing. They don't mind.
September 14 fell on a Sunday this year. We went to church (They sang to Chris and Caeleb in Primary) and then Mom and Dad joined us for a steak and potato supper. And hotdogs for Caeleb and Elva. Caeleb got a sticker book from the Nelson, cars from Uncle Nathan, a Christmas book from Aunty Lindsey, a jean quilt from Nana and Papa and some activity books,markers from Grandma and Grandpa Watters. Caeleb and Chris got the Hungry Hippo game. This is Caeleb's first game (well, he has played memory before and he is quite good at it) and he loves Hungry Hippos! He played it all day long for a few days after. Chris got, well, our Disney vacation/cruise that is coming up in October. It is our birthday gift, anniversary gift and Christmas gift all rolled up in one trip and I am super excited. I also got him some clothes for the trip and some stickers to put on our big map of the world (that hangs on the wall at the top of the stairs) to represent places we have been. I do love to travel but I know my place is to be at home now as a wife and mother. I don't think we will do any other big trip in the near future.
I made two cakes - an Green Elephant shaped cake and a white horse cake - both requested by Caeleb. He must have got the idea from his room as I sponge painted green elephants and white horses on the wall in his room. Elephants are still his favourite.
This birthday was a simple but special day. As I tell people on their birthdays, Lets " make this year the best one yet."
